At a Monday morning general session at EBN’s Benefit Forum & Expo, former Health Secretary Michael Leavitt warned benefits pros of the dangers to their plans that lie underneath the legalese in H.R. 3200 (the working health care reform legislation in the House). Among the potential worrisome elements in the bill is the proposed health care advisory board, which Leavitt said, “would have one job, and that is to set the minimum federal standards for what

I'll always remember where I was when the news first came in, and I know you will too. Nothing since has been the same, and in the 3,000 days since, I know you've taken steps to protect your employees, information and facilities that you likely never thought necessary or possible on Sept. 10, 2001.

If you were out enjoying the Labor Day weekend, you may have missed President Obama’s weekly radio address (now also a video address) on Sunday.

You bet they do, perhaps me first among them! And this is the week to celebrate it. ADP – provider of many things HR, payroll and benefits-related – leads the nation in National Payroll Week (Sept. 7-11), which aims to educate American workers about paychecks, the payroll withholding system and other payroll-driven benefits by offering tips to help maximize payday.
