Joplin, MO, March 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HR services company Employer Advantage is proud to announce that they have yet again earned the SOC 1®, Type 2 certification. The Service Organization Controls (SOC) 1, Type 2 audit analyzes a company’s processing methods and controls over the system and must be administered by an independent auditor. Employer Advantage worked with national accounting firm BKD to complete the certification.
The rigorous SOC 1®, Type 2 certification provides assurances that Employer Advantage operates with trustworthy internal controls and processes to protect client data and conduct services effectively. It serves to keep companies accountable and their clients protected.
“Clients trust us not only with their own data, but the data of their employees as well,” said John Huitsing, CFO at Employer Advantage. “They depend on us for vital processes including tax filings, benefits administration and payroll. That’s a tremendous amount of trust, and we don’t take that lightly. Obtaining this certification demonstrates our commitment to transparency and the highest service standards, and honors the great trust clients place in us.”
Employer Advantage is an IRS-Certified Professional Employer Organization (C-PEO). In addition to SOC 1®, Type 2, the company and its employees hold several other critical certifications: SHRM, American Payroll Association, SSAE and more.
“Employer Advantage exists to free businesses from the burden of employee administration and compliance so they can focus on what matters most,” said Jared Young, President and CEO at Employer Advantage. “It’s about giving them peace of mind. We will continue to meet these industry-best standards and be a trusted partner in our clients’ success.”
