When you’re responsible for your employees’ well-being in the form of their retirement plans and health benefits, that’s where ERISA comes in.
ERISA, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, is a piece of federal law with a broad reach. It sets minimum standards and safeguards designed to protect employees in the private sector participating in employer-sponsored retirement plans and benefit plans (like healthcare coverage).
If you’re a small business owner, HR professional, or startup founder, understanding ERISA law is essential to ensure you fulfill your duties while protecting the interests of your employees.
Consider the following scenario: You’re the founder of a new startup, which you incorporated in Delaware, but you live in California. You need to register your company as a foreign entity to do business there. But before you can register in California, you’ll need to obtain a Certificate of Good Standing from your incorporated state of Delaware.
Essentially, a Certificate of Good Standing validates the legitimacy of your business. Business owners might use a Certificate to register to do business in another state, apply for a business loan or insurance, seek financing from investors, or lease commercial space.
Employing workers across multiple states can bring unique challenges. Multi-state compliance helps avoid legal disputes and ensures your business operations run smoothly.
If you have business locations in several states, your staff is fully remote, or you hire across state lines, it’s a wise idea to familiarize yourself with multi-state employment law. From payroll requirements to leave policies, every aspect of managing a multi-state workforce requires careful consideration to ensure continued compliance.
