The Atlanta-based staffing company, which specializes in sourcing information technology, accounting, finance, healthcare, and engineering professionals, will pay $1.35 million in restitution, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said in a settlement agreement dated April 24.

Seilkop will receive nearly $500,000 of the settlement amount, plus $86,000 from Insight Global to cover attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs arising from the civil action.
