This acquisition—PrestigePEO’s sixth—strengthens its presence in the western United States and enhances its ability to offer employers premium benefits, advanced HR technology, and comprehensive outsourcing services nationwide. Founded in 2001, O2 Employment Services has earned a strong reputation among small- and mid-sized businesses for providing full-service employment solutions and compliance expertise within the nation’s most complex and heavily regulated labor markets.

As PrestigePEO continues to expand organically and through acquisitions, this partnership is a powerful opportunity to align values and support employers navigating the complexities of the country’s most regulated employment environments.”
