Employee Benefit Plan Audits
Erisa Requirements For Employee Benefit Plans
As a business owner, you likely offer a benefit plan to your employees. But did you know that according to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, businesses and organizations with more than 100 eligible participants covered by a plan must adhere to an employee benefit plan (EBP) audit? Failure to comply can leave your business at risk of losing its tax-exempt status with the IRS.
