Benefits and pension arrangements are part of both the hiring procedure as well the retirement or termination process. The state of New York has laws regulating the way that employers are allowed to administer health benefits and pension plans. Recipients and beneficiaries of these packages can file their claims under the state laws.

The employer often pays for some of the benefit plans, but other plans require further voluntary contributions from the employee. Furthermore, employees are sometimes required to work for a minimum amount of time before becoming eligible for certain benefits. New York laws require that employers providing medical plans for their workers perform specific legal duties. The employer must inform the employee about their health plans, and the employee is entitled to fair treatment in the review process of their claim.
