- Retail Benefits Council
The Retail Benefits Council, formerly known as the Health Care Committee, is comprised of Senior health and benefits executives, as well as government affairs professionals, focused on operational issues, policy development, and federal regulatory and legislative activities regarding ERISA, implementation of the Affordable Care Act, employer benefit offerings, and total compensation packages. The Council explores solutions and actions policymakers can take to ease potential compliance and financial issues that can arise from altering the previous constructs of employer-provided benefits. The group strategizes on employee offerings and how those fit into the 21st century retail workforce.
The Council activities include monthly conference calls, in-person meetings, and educational and advocacy opportunities.
