Yes. PEO Consulting Partners is an independent PEO broker for employers in Seattle, WA, at no cost to you. Which PEO actually fits a Seattle business depends on your workers' compensation class codes, which here run heavily to technology, aerospace and healthcare, on the Washington employment rules that apply locally, and on whether you run payroll in more than one state.

The default for venture-backed Seattle and Bellevue tech with significant equity-comp programs.
The growth-stage pick for Seattle tech 50 to 500 employees with multi-state distributed teams.
Strong fit for Seattle startups under 75 employees; published pricing simplifies founder evaluation.
Tech-forward WA companies with multi-state remote teams benefit from Rippling's HR + IT consolidation.

Yes. Competent PEOs withhold the 0.58% Cares Fund payroll tax, maintain employee opt-out documentation (for those who qualified for an exemption), and file required reports.
Sequoia One and TriNet are the two most-common recommendations for venture-backed Seattle tech. Justworks for under 75 employees with published pricing preferences. Rippling for tech-forward companies wanting consolidated HR + IT.
There is no Seattle rate to quote you. A 20 to 60 employee Seattle tech startup is priced on headcount, states, workers' compensation class codes and the benefits census. Only two PEOs on our panel publish a rate on their own website, Justworks (PEO Basic $79, PEO Plus $124 per employee per month) and Deel PEO (starting at $125); everyone else quotes per client. Tech-vertical PEOs such as Sequoia One and TriNet quote each client individually, so compare several quotes on the same census with the admin fee, medical and workers comp separated.
