Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) As Retirement Accounts - Retire Healthy & Wealthy!
Presented by: Louis Harbour
11:30am - 12:00pm: Food Service
12:00pm: Speaker Presentation
As employers are ramping up their adoption of HSA-eligible Health Plans to save money on benefits spending, and their employees are juggling competing financial demands, this convergence between health and wealth is giving rise to a new demand for HSAs – the use of HSAs as retirement accounts. This new utilization of HSAs presents an historic opportunity for employees, employers, and the benefits providers that service them. Louis will discuss how Employers and Employees can use HSAs as retirement accounts

2023 was a big year for changes to employee handbooks. And now is the best time to do it so that you can roll a new one out in 2024.
In this presentation, attendees will learn about the legislation, court decisions and agency rulings that necessitate these changes. Attendees will also learn which sections of their employee handbooks need to be deleted and modified, as well as those sections that improved by best practices. Finally, attendees will learn how to write concisely to decrease the wordcount in, and the length of, their employee handbooks.
