Consideration of Employee Leasing Company and Controlling Person Applications

After approving minutes from its April 20, 2011 meeting, the Board approved the following employee leasing and controlling person applications following a brief discussion:

  • Employer Payroll Solutions, Inc. (EL Applicant) 011
  • William A. Boyd, Controlling Person Applicant 079

Before approving the applications, Board members expressed concern about a past suspension that occurred in connection to a Professional Employer Organization (“PEO”) brokered by Mr. Boyd.   It was discovered that the PEO was not licensed to do business in Florida.  As a result, Mr. Boyd incurred a 30-day suspension and a $1,500 fine.  Mr. Boyd hired his own legal counsel who paid or corrected all his clients’ outstanding claims.

After voicing concern over the matter, the Board unanimously approved both applications.

 

Consideration of Change of Ownership Applications

The following application was approved after a brief discussion:

  • Staff Payroll of Pensacola, Inc. – EL 121

  • SCI HR Outsourcing, Inc. – EL 395 157
    • To: LRA HR Outsourcing, Inc.

 

Consideration of Termination of Employee Leasing Company Operations

Board members tabled action on all of the following applications and requested additional information after reviewing the files and determining the documentation that had been provided was inadequate. Initially, the Board declined to accept the voluntary relinquishment requested by Business Personnel Solutions, Inc. and decided an investigation should be opened on the company, but later rescinded that action and instead agreed to give the company more time to provide adequate documentation as it had done for the other applicants.
