Lyons HR is proud to be an ESAC-accredited Professional Employer Organizations(PEO). Lyons HR clients can rest assured they are using the best-in-class PEO available anywhere, with auditory services and financial protection backing up their decision.

The Employer Services Assurance Corporation(ESAC) was established to operate as an independent, non-profit organization in 1994 by the National Association of Professional Employer Organizations(NAPEO) for the purpose of providing services to the Professional Employer Organization (PEO) industry that could not be provided by an industry trade association.

ESAC administers an accreditation program for the professional employer organization (PEO) industry to verify compliance with government regulations and important industry standards. The performance of key employer responsibilities by accredited PEOs is backed by bonds providing financial assurance for clients, worksite employees, insurers and regulatory authorities.

ESAC's purpose is to build trust and provide assurance to PEO clients, worksite employees, insurers, taxing authorities, regulators, and the general public by providing the following services to the PEO industry:

• Administer a comprehensive accreditation process for PEOs to voluntarily demonstrate, in an independently verifiable manner, their compliance with important ethical, financial and operational standards;
• Monitor ongoing compliance with those standards by ESAC-accredited PEOs on a quarterly basis;
• Provide a financial assurance program with surety bonds held by the Employer Services Trust to back the performance of each accredited PEO; and
• Work with accredited PEOs and other industry organizations to protect public interests and promote continued industry growth.
