Descriptiontext

Lyons HR is a Professional Employer Organization (PEO) headquartered in Florence, Alabama, founded in 1995 and serving small to mid-sized businesses with 1-50+ employees. The company delivers co-employment-based HR outsourcing spanning HR compliance, employee benefits administration, workers' compensation and risk management, payroll processing, and recruiting services. Its core technology stack is the PrismONE platform (provided by PrismHR), which offers separate employee and manager web portals for self-service time tracking, benefits enrollment, payroll access, scheduling, and approvals.

The company operates a subscription recurring revenue model, charging PEO service fees typically structured as a percentage of client payroll or a per-employee rate, with pricing quoted on a custom basis through online inquiry forms segmented by employee count (1-20, 21-50, 51+). Lyons HR reaches customers through direct phone sales (877-703-8010), online quote request forms, a formal referral program, and content marketing via a News & Insights section, with sales-led motion focused on SMBs. Geographically, the company maintains its Alabama roots while extending service reach nationally through the broader OneDigital | Resourcing Edge platform, with the online quote form soliciting inquiries from all U.S. states.

Lyons HR has been integrated into OneDigital | Resourcing Edge, a strategic operating parent offering a consolidated HR services platform including compliance, employee benefits, workers' comp, payroll, and recruiting. The integration preserved the Lyons HR team and client relationships in Alabama while rebranding the digital presence to the parent. The company holds no patents, no AI capabilities, no disclosed certifications, and no named customer logos in the available source material. Ownership remains private with no venture capital, public listing, or private equity signals identified.
