Benefits and pension arrangements are part of both the hiring procedure as well the retirement or termination process. Health plans and pension arrangements are governed by New York law. Those who receive these plans can file their claims under such laws.

Additionally, if a Lynbrook employer guaranteed any benefits to the employer in a contract when work began, they must make good on these. The employer sometimes pays for benefit plans, but at times the employee must make a voluntary contribution. Additionally, some employees establish a requirement that employees work with them for a certain period of time before they are eligible for benefits.

What Employee Benefits are Protected by New York law?

Those employers who provide medical plans for employees owe specific legal duties under New York law to those they cover. They must disclose important information about the health plans, and employees are entitled to a fair process in the treatment of their claims under the plan. For employees who lose their jobs, there are some laws that allow them to continue the health care plan they had with their prior employer while they actively look for a new job.
