With 20 years of experience in payroll, HR, and workers’ compensation, Shawn Johnson brings a unique perspective to helping business owners manage their workers’ compensation costs. His experience includes serving as Senior Vice President of Sales for Insurance Office of America’s payroll division.

Shawn founded Johnson Workers’ Comp Solutions to give businesses an alternative to the traditional PEO model—combining traditional payroll with employer-owned workers’ compensation programs.

His consultative approach helps business owners understand the pros and cons of owning their own workers’ compensation policy versus leasing coverage through a PEO. When the right program is in place, more of the value created by a strong workers’ compensation program can stay with the business—including potential savings, dividends, and other financial benefits.
