COBRA Compliance Update Understand the complexities of this act's changing legislation and ensure your organization is legally compliant 1-Hour Audio CD — Now Available! As an HR professional, your job is complicated enough trying to legally and ethically manage so many aspects of your organization. From employment law to benefits administration, you come across countless acronyms that must be decoded, including COBRA. Are you confident you’re meeting the demands of this changing legislation and interpreting the law correctly? The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) was passed in 1986 to offer employees and their families temporary continuation of health benefits at the end of their employment. COBRA applies to workers during times of voluntary or involuntary job loss, a reduction in hours worked, transition between jobs, and other specified cases. Yet, recent federal changes to COBRA provisions mean that it’s more important than ever to review COBRA policies and requirements, make sure you stay current on the latest changes and mandates, and double-check that your organization’s written and online materials reflect COBRA’s most up-to-date information. Are your organization’s policies and procedures regarding health coverage in complete compliance with COBRA law, or could you be headed for legal hot water? If you are not absolutely certain your practices are legally sound, you owe it to yourself and your organization to participate in this training! Failure to comply with COBRA is a federal offense and can lead to hefty fines, substantial penalties, and costly lawsuits. Don’t risk the threat of non-compliance actions being taken against your organization! Take just one hour out of your busy day to listen, learn, and fill in those potentially damaging knowledge gaps! The language of COBRA can be confusing, and even a small misunderstanding or misinterpretation of COBRA law can have serious consequences. Federal guidelines are particularly stringent when it comes to how organizations must present COBRA options to their employees, processes that must be followed, benefit entitlements, qualifying events, and coverage periods. Any failure to notify employees of their rights under COBRA law, provide them with complete and timely information, or fully comply with federal COBRA guidelines can lead to significant financial hardships for your organization.
