Timothy Parry, Controller at XcelHR, stated, “The certification process involved an extensive background check on its Responsible Individuals and thorough analysis on the PEO itself. The certification process also determined that XcelHR has paid its federal employment taxes per the Internal Revenue Code and that it has proven to be financially responsible and sound. All of which gives XcelHR clients a tremendous amount of assurance that they will continue to receive the highest degree of service.”

Accident insurance is a supplement to standard health care coverage and covers more than 150 accidental injuries. This offering provides:

  • coverage for the whole family
  • claim resolution in only 10 business days
  • directly receive payments to help cover costs
  • covers costs associated with injuries, medical services and treatments, hospital costs, accidental death, and more

  • Protects customers through the XcelHR’s sole responsibility to pay wages and federal employment taxes.
  • Wage limits are no longer required to restart, related to unemployment taxes and social security, for XcelHR clients.
  • Provides clear direction on pass-through of tax credits and employment tax exclusions for the XcelHR and its customer.
