Compliance Resources Services
We all want to feel safe. Employee Benefits Compliance is a significant concern for many Employers. There is pressure to have employee benefit plans fully compliant with all employee benefits laws, such as ERISA, COBRA, HIPAA, etc. Not being in compliance means an Employer could face fines, penalties, loss of tax favorable status, or even criminal charges. The Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA), a division of the Department of Labor (DOL), has been conducting extensive ERISA audits on pension and welfare benefit plans, and shows no signs of letting up. All plan administrators and individuals managing benefits must follow judiciary requirements, looking out for the best interests of participants while managing plans to comply with all regulatory guidelines. Careful attention should be given to ensure participants receive promised benefits. Compliant plans establish and maintain procedures in a financially fair and sound manner to avoid discrimination issues. They are also managed for the exclusive benefit of participants and beneficiaries, are prudent in executing duties and refrain from conflicts of interest.
