Can employers use email to distribute plan documents?   Keith R.

The benefits (no pun intended) of working with a company like Employees Only is that we stay on top of the latest legislation and benefit related news and updates.  We ensure that our clients are up to date on government policies and procedures and avoid costly audits while mitigating risks on behalf of our clients.  More information about Employees Only can be found on our website at www.EmployeesOnly.net.
