Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) does not cover plans established or maintained by governmental entities or churches, plans maintained outside the United States primarily for the benefit of nonresident aliens, or plans maintained for nonemployees such as a director or independent contractors. An employer that offers welfare benefits, such as health, life, disability, or accident insurance, or retirement plans to its employees is subject to certain requirements under ERISA, which covers most private-sector employee benefit plans.
