The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) is a federal law which governs employee benefit programs offered through private employers. It sets minimum standards for how these programs are funded and administered while governing the claims process. It also provides guidelines for filing appeals which both employers and employees must follow in the event benefits are denied.Â
