The complex legislation changes implemented during this unprecedented time demand all businesses to reevaluate health care benefit packages to retain employees, and comply with new regulations. As many of you know, policy change is happening rapidly. According to the Department of Labor, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) requires certain employers to provide employees with paid sick leave or expanded family and medical leave for specified reasons related to COVID-19. The Department of Labor’s (Department) Wage and Hour Division (WHD) administers and enforces the new law’s paid leave requirements. These provisions will apply from the effective date through December 31, 2020.

Superior Benefit Specialists have been following these changes and are prepared to help you create individualized benefit packages tailored to your specific company needs. In uncertain times like these, you can count on our team to lead the way to transition to the next phase seamlessly
