After the Midterms: What the Results Mean for Your Business

Don't let compliance be complicated. Join us for a one-day training built for new & current safety professionals, fleet managers, operations personnel, and anyone who wants a compliance refresher.

The compliance landscape for health and welfare benefit plans continued to evolve throughout 2026. As the year winds down, this webinar will recap the most impactful regulatory developments and compliance changes from 2026 and what they mean for employers. We’ll also preview what’s ahead in 2027, including anticipated rules, deadlines, and trends that could shape benefit planning.

According to NATMI, recipients who enrolled in a NATMI training and certification lowered their organization's accident rate by 86%, achieved a lower occupational injury rate by 83%, and controlled costs associated with accident litigation by 100%. The cost of participating in NATMI is minimal compared to the company’s day-to-day operational savings. The Certified Director of Safety (CDS)/Certified Safety Supervisor (CSS) course is designed to help safety personnel attain a greater professional knowledge base that should, in turn, provide greater confidence to improve operations, prevent and control injury and damage, as well as the ability to provide strong representation such as during a court case.

When employees request mid-year benefit changes, the rules aren’t always straightforward. In this session, we’ll examine the interaction between HIPAA special enrollment rights and Section 125 cafeteria plan election change rules, highlighting when changes must be permitted—and when they may be restricted. We’ll also explore key differences between requests to add coverage versus drop coverage mid-plan year, helping employers administer changes consistently and compliantly.

The 2026 midterms will shape policy over the next two years, influencing everything from health plan costs and transportation rules to tax and trade.
