Employee benefits and pensions are considered both when the employee is hired and when they leave the position (for whatever reasons). Massachusetts's laws specifically govern the way in which employers implement health plans and retirement pension payments. Recipients of such benefit plans can file claims using these laws.

Also, employers in Everett are required to perform on any benefits that may have been promised to the employee in a contract when work began. The employer sometimes pays for benefit plans, but at times the employee must make a voluntary contribution. Also, 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 Massachusetts law?

Under Massachusetts law, employers who provide employees with medical plans owe them certain legal duties. For instance, they must disclose important health plan information, and employees must be provided with a fair process when reviewing their claims according to 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.

Everett employers also owe legal duties to those given pension programs. First, they are legally required to provide the benefits that were promised under a set benefit plan. Additionally, the employer must bear the risk on any investments which are made on behalf of a worker according to terms in a matched contribution arrangement.
