This webinar will cover how to determine if an employer fits ERISA’s church, government, or municipal exemption. We will:

  • Briefly discuss which employers are subject to ERISA
  • Describe the ERISA exemptions

  • Discuss the impact of referencing ERISA or meeting ERISA obligations when the plan is exempt from ERISA
  • Discuss recent Supreme Court cases involving ERISA and church plans

This 60-minute intermediate level webinar will help employers understand whether their group health plan fits within an ERISA exemption.

The presentation will be posted on the UBA website the day before the webinar.
