DoL Provides Multiemployer Plan Election Model Notice
Among other things, the notice must describe the principal differences between ERISA’s guarantee programs and benefit restrictions for single-employer and multiemployer plans. The DoL said its model notice may be used by plan administrators to fulfill their notice obligations when making an election.
A copy of the model notice will also be available through the DOL’s Employee Benefits Security Administration Web site at www.dol.gov/ebsa.
