FAQ

Under ERISA, each person must be bonded for at least 10% of the $1 million or $100,000. (Note: Bonds covering more than one plan may be required to be over $500,000 to meet the ERISA requirement because persons covered by a bond may handle funds or other property for more than one plan.)

Qualified plans include 401(k) plans, 403(b) plans, profit-sharing plans, and Keogh (HR-10) plans. Nonqualified plans include deferred-compensation plans, executive bonus plans, and split-dollar life insurance plans.

ERISA requires a plan administrator to furnish copies of the summary plan description, Form 5500, bargaining agreement, trust agreement, contract, or other instruments under which the plan is established or operated, to a participant within 30 days after the participant's written request.

Active enforcement activities include investigations, lawsuits, and the dissemination of information. Documents published by EBSA include the Reporting and Disclosure Guide for Employee Benefit Plans.

A common rule of thumb is any employer that offers a group-sponsored health plan must comply with the ERISA notice and disclosure, and possibly, reporting requirements unless an exemption applies.

Basic ERISA compliance requires employers provide notice to participants about plan information, their rights under the plan, and how the plan is funded. This includes ensuring plans comply with ERISA's minimum standards, recordkeeping, annual filing and reporting, and fiduciary compliance.

All private employers and employee organizations, such as unions, that offer health plans to employees have to follow ERISA. Only churches and government groups are exempt. If you offer your employees health coverage, you'll have to follow certain rules and procedures as a result of ERISA.

Under the ACA, employers with a certain number of employees must offer affordable health insurance coverage to their eligible employees. ERISA provides the framework for employers to meet these obligations, ensuring that employers properly administer health benefit plans and adhere to the ACA's coverage requirements.

ERISA requirements apply to all employer-based health plans, whether fully insured through a third party or self-funded. But, governmental plans offered by local, state, or federal governments are generally excepted from ERISA requirements.

California established the CalSavers program to offset the retirement savings crisis in the United States. The state mandates that eligible businesses must offer the state-sponsored retirement savings program or establish a similar retirement plan that satisfies the requirement.
