About Employer Flexible

Employer Flexible is a Houston, Texas-based Professional Employer Organization founded in 2003 by Michael Hopkins, Chris Dollins, and Michael Greathouse. The company provides payroll, employee benefits, HR administration, workers' compensation, risk management, and compliance support to small and mid-sized businesses across Texas, Oklahoma, Alabama, and Montana.

Certification Status

Not Currently Certified

Employer Flexible does not currently hold IRS CPEO certification or ESAC accreditation. This does not necessarily indicate a problem — many reputable PEOs operate without them. We recommend verifying their financial stability, NAPEO membership, and state licensing directly.

PEO Authority Editorial Note

Employer Flexible positions itself as a Texas-rooted alternative to national call-center PEOs, pairing local, named-contact service with Owner Resource Group backing since 2022. It is not IRS CPEO certified. Pricing follows the standard per-employee-per-month model. Best for: Texas-based small and mid-sized businesses, particularly in professional services, construction, and healthcare, that want a dedicated local team over a national brand.
