The Department of Labor (DOL) is back in action and completing audits of private sector employers that are subject to ERISA regulations. They are targeting Health & Welfare Benefit Plan Compliance, especially late and non-filers for Form 5500. Employers who offer benefits are considered Plan Sponsors and must follow a strict fiduciary code of conduct. If non-compliance is found, the DOL may enforce fines and penalties.

Carolyn McNairy, Vice-President of Strategic Partnerships, will cover the following topics:

- Which employers are subject to Health & Welfare Benefit Plan Compliance
- What are the requirements
- Penalties and fines for non-compliance
- Current DOL investigations
- Why outsource and BASIC’s solution

The first 60 minutes will focus on the above topics, while the remaining time will be devoted to Q&A and insight into BASIC's Compliance Solution. Join us to learn how to prepare and protect your business from potential fines and penalties!

This time of year, employers are reviewing options for health plans and other benefits plans to offer to employees. Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are one of the most popular benefits to include in that package. HSAs can help you lower your taxes, pay for health care more easily and even save for retirement. Known as the triple threat, HSAs contributions are tax-free, potential interest gains accumulate tax-free, and distributions are tax-free when used to pay for qualified medical expenses. Although HSAs have been around since 2004, employers may still be apprehensive about offering HSAs. During this presentation, Carolyn McNairy, Vice-President of Strategic Partnerships, will cover an overview of HSA regulations and why offering HSAs can make the greatest impact for your employees' future.

The first 60 minutes will provide education on HSAs, while the remaining time will be devoted to Q&A and insight into BASIC's HSA Solution. BASIC's webinar is approved for 1.0 HRCI and 1.0 SHRM-CP advanced credits for HR professionals worldwide. Credits are for live attendance only. Join us to learn more!

Medical and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) have been around for several years and they are still widely used by employers of various sizes. Because of their long history and wide-use, sponsors of FSAs tend to overlook various legal pitfalls that may arise in the administration of FSAs. This webinar will provide an overview of Medical and Dependent Care FSAs, an explanation of the factors that employers should consider when adopting FSAs, and identification of the specific issues that can make the proper administration of FSAs challenging.

For the first 60 minutes, Brett Liefbroer will present on the above topic. The remaining time will be devoted to Q&A and insight into BASIC's FSA Administration.

BASIC's webinar is approved for 1.0 HRCI and 1 SHRM-CP credits for advanced professional credentials for HR professionals worldwide. Credits are only available for live attendance.
