What Employers Need to Know About Offering and Terminating Employee Benefits

When an employer offers employee benefits, there are requirements to document the benefits, including who is eligible for the benefits, when employees are eligible, what benefits are available, when employees may add or drop benefits, and when employees’ benefits may be terminated.
