Ready, Set … Will You Be Ready for the Affordable Care Act?

Did you know?

• Good insurance coverage isn't enough for employers to avoid penalties -- especially if an employee's share of the premium exceeds a certain income threshold.
• The sum of all part-time employee hours designates if a business is a covered "large employer"?
• Beginning in 2014, businesses with less than 100 employees could have new coverage options from state-based groups called "exchanges"?

Key provisions of the health care reform law (Affordable Care Act) will become effective in 2013 and 2014. NRF's Vice President and Employee Benefits Policy Council Neil Trautwein will talk about the basics you need to know and how the law could shape your future workforce decisions. Trautwein will answer:

• How big must your business be to worry about the ACA?
• What about my part-time or seasonal employees?
• Who do I have to offer coverage to?
• What penalties will I pay if I don't offer coverage?
