The latest “Just Compensation” podcast features Megan Monson, Taryn E. Cannataro, and Jessica Kriegsfeld of Lowenstein’s Employee Benefits & Executive Compensation group describing some of the benefits-related considerations of which buyers should be aware in transactions involving an entity that uses a professional employer organization or PEO. Many companies use PEOs to handle HR tasks such as payroll; however, acquiring a company that uses a PEO may require a different approach for deal documentation and consideration on the go-forward status of health/welfare and retirement plans, including understanding procedural requirements and limitations, to name a few—all of which could cause unexpected delays and administrative burdens.
