Please note: The DOL FAQs should be considered informal guidance that do not necessarily have the same authority as law or regulations. These FAQs are subject to change without notice. Employers should confirm information found in the DOL FAQ document and in the temporary regulations which can be viewed here. To the extent employers rely upon the guidance and temporary regulations, before final regulations are issued by the DOL, employers should ensure they are reviewing the current version of all documents on the DOL website. It’s also recommended to print/save a copy of the temporary regulations and/or DOL’s website page containing these FAQs at that time, to establish good faith, if necessary, should the information later change.
