Nondiscrimination Rules

Thursday, June 18, 2026











Each person who plans to attend the webinar should complete this registration form.

Differentiating benefits can be a strategic tool for employers — but not all differences are allowed. This webinar will help employers understand when and how they can differentiate benefit programs while staying compliant. In this session, we'll break down the various nondiscrimination requirements that apply to employee benefit plans, including tax code testing rules for highly compensated and key employees and protections against discrimination based on health status, disability, and other protected characteristics.
