PEO basics

ESAC accreditation

Also called ESAC

Definition

Accreditation from the Employer Services Assurance Corporation, which reviews a PEO's finances, tax payments and practices.

ESAC accreditation explained

ESAC is an independent accreditation body for PEOs. Accredited PEOs undergo regular financial and compliance reviews, and ESAC offers financial assurance to clients of accredited PEOs.

Like CPEO status, it's a check on financial reliability, not on service quality or price.
