Mandatory benenfits & ERISA

[Guest benspec]

I work for a non-profit organization which is very generous with employee benefits. My benefits manual has a warning about failing to communicate and administar employee benefits under federal law. Does this fall under ERISA? If a benefit was denied even by ignorance of law, what recourse would employees have and where can I get a copy of these laws?

Erisa stands for employee retirement income security act of 197?. You can find at 29 USC 1001 through 1461. Have fun reading it!!!
