United Benefit Advisors Launches New Compliance Solutions Program
Employer Webinar Series is the Cornerstone for Understanding Rapidly Changing and Complex Compliance Regulations
Indianapolis, IN (Vocus/PRWEB ) May 5, 2009 -- Member Firms of United Benefit Advisors, LLC (UBA), (www.benefits.com), one of the nation's top five employee benefits advisory organizations, announced today that access to its new Compliance Solutions Program is open to all employers by way of the UBA website, http://www.benefits.com. The Compliance Solution Program is designed to help owners, C-level management, HR officers and staff, benefits managers, compensation management and corporate health and wellness officers address the increasing challenges posed by more complex compliance regulations and rapidly shifting benefits programs.
The UBA Employer Compliance Solution Program helps employers maximize their time by making complicated benefit and HR compliance information easy to understand and readily available through a variety of communication vehicles. "We believe the three-pronged compliance initiative, which consists of a webinar series, compliance alerts, and a quarterly newsletter is one of the most important employer-focused initiatives that UBA has ever undertaken," said Ron Dutton, UBA Board Member and President of RJ Dutton Inc., a UBA Member Benefits Advisory Firm headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas.
"Keeping on top of benefits and employment law is no easy task. Our goal is to help employers act in accordance with government regulations by summarizing key issues and presenting information on a timely and regular basis," said Dutton. The Employer Webinar Series features frequent presentations by the attorneys of Spencer Fane Britt & Browne LLP, one of the premier law firms in the Midwest that serves a diverse base of local and national companies. Employer Compliance Alerts and the Benefits and Employment Briefing newsletter are also authored by Spencer Fane Britt & Browne.
Webinars are generally scheduled for the second Tuesday of every month at 2 p.m. Eastern time and have included time-sensitive topics such as Administering the 65% COBRA Premium Subsidy, Requirements Under the 2009 Stimulus Package, Changes to ADA, and FMLA regulation updates. Effects of CHIP Expansion on Employer Health Plans is scheduled for May 12, and Expected Changes to the Employee Free Choice Act is scheduled for June 9.
"These webinars are an exceptional value, especially for those employers interested in continuing education opportunities because our webinars will be submitted for HRCI (HR Certification Institute) recertification," said Dan Bacon, UBA Director, Analytics and Training. "What's more, employers can obtain a 30 percent discounted price simply by contacting their local UBA Member Firm," said Bacon.
