About Genesis HR Solutions

Genesis HR Solutions is a Burlington, Massachusetts-based IRS CPEO certified and ESAC accredited Professional Employer Organization founded in 1991. New England's largest PEO for over three decades, Genesis was among the first PEOs in the country to receive IRS CPEO certification in 2017 and has maintained ESAC accreditation continuously since 1996. In November 2022, Genesis HR Solutions was acquired by Engage PEO, expanding Engage's New England presence while allowing Genesis to retain its brand name and Burlington headquarters as a joint center of New England operations. The combined entity serves small and mid-sized businesses across all 50 states with payroll, benefits, HR compliance, workers' compensation, and risk management, with particularly deep expertise in Massachusetts employment law and the New England business environment.
