CEO of Simplified Personnel
CEO Profile

Steve Holmes

35+ years of leadership in PEO, workforce management, and insurance services.

Steve has spent 35+ years building workers' comp and employer-services platforms for the hardest accounts in the market — high-turnover staffing, variable labor, and elevated mods. Over that span he's structured programs covering 100,000+ workers across 37 states and rehabilitated hundreds of companies out of high-mod, high-cost workers' comp into lower-mod, lower-cost operations positioned to grow.

His focus has never changed: help businesses grow profitably while controlling the labor risk that quietly erases margin.

The team behind your account

Three dedicated specialists. Not a ticket queue.

Every client gets the same three people — not a rotating call center. They know your business by name.

Payroll Advisor

Runs your multi-state payroll, tax filings, and reporting — and picks up the phone when something's off.

HR Business Partner

Your line to employment-law guidance, handbooks, compliance, and the hard conversations when they come up.

Risk & Safety Consultant

Owns your claims strategy, return-to-work programs, and the experience-mod work that compounds into lower premiums.

How we operate

This isn't software. This is your employer operating system.

We combine program-direct workers' compensation programs, proactive claims management, full-service payroll, HR support, and strategic benefits consulting into one dedicated team focused on reducing your total labor cost.

Program-direct programs unavailable elsewhere.

Access to specialized workers' compensation programs not available through retail brokers, payroll companies, or traditional PEOs.

Lower WC costs.

Average 20–35% savings on WC premiums through program-direct access, experience-mod management, and proactive claims control.

In-house risk management team.

Dedicated professionals managing every claim, conducting safety assessments, and managing claims to support your experience modification — not outsourced adjusters.

Real professionals, not call centers.

A dedicated Payroll Advisor, HR Business Partner, and Risk & Safety Consultant who know your business by name.
