Client Success Stories

PEO Canada is a great choice for new companies opening a business in Canada. Their knowledge of Canadian employment law and payroll regulations is of immense help for someone opening a branch of a foreign company in Canada. The availability of PEO employees to support and answer questions is fantastic.

We are a Toronto-based company managed and run by US-based executives. We do not have a warm body available to keep up with the provincial regulations and local rules to stay compliant. This is where PEO Canada comes into the picture. Partnering with PEO Canada is a strategic move that allowed HR to run itself so we can focus on being an effective HR Business Partner.

Overwhelmingly pleased with PEO Canada and the level of service provided. I am very big on building relationships, and the PEO Canada team really understands our business and culture, and I appreciate the partnership.

For the past eight years, PEO Canada has been an important partner in providing HR, Payroll and Benefits to our Canadian employees. Their expertise in these areas is top-notch, and they are always responsive to our HR team and our employees. Their proactive communications ensure we maintain compliance with ever-changing legislation.

As a very small US-based employer, the prospect of extending my footprint into Canada was initially daunting. My PEO Canada team immediately eliminated all my trepidation and impressed me with their experience, expertise, responsiveness, and patience. I wish all organizations I partner with were as amazing to work with as you are, and I only wish I could have transferred all my US business needs to you.

Dealing with the team at PEO Canada has been a delight. The communication and support are excellent, and I feel totally confident in their professionalism. I could not fault their service in any way at all and have no hesitation in recommending them to other employers looking for a PEO.

We really appreciate the partnership with PEO Canada, and things are consistent and smooth. It is very nice working with the team. PEO Canada has been so supportive of our company and very attentive.
