Consulting Services

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) is a complex body of law that must be explained in clear and understandable terms to plan sponsors and employees. In fact, ERISA requires that employees must be informed of the circumstances of their current benefit programs in plain language.

We can assist in the development and implementation of communication programs in the following ways:

• General consulting for plan sponsors and trustees
• Plan interpretation and explanation
• Train management in the elements of effective employee communication
• Conduct employee information sessions
• Design employee handbooks which communicate benefits clearly and also satisfy ERISA requirements

Effective communication is not only a legal requirement, but adds to employee satisfaction when employees fully understand their benefits.
