Washington Self Insurers Pension Bond is a surety bond required by the State of Washington Department of Labor and Industries for employers who self-insure their pension plan. This bond guarantees that the employer will fund the pension benefits that have been promised to its employees. This bond also ensures that the employer will comply with all the laws, regulations, and other requirements related to the management and funding of the pension plan. There are two types of Washington Self Insurers Pension Bond: the Pension Trust Fund Bond and the ERICA Bond. The Pension Trust Fund Bond guarantees that the employer will not use the pension funds for any unauthorized purpose. The ERICA Bond guarantees that the employer will properly manage and administer the plan in accordance with ERICA requirements.
