HR 2869 would require EBSA to send Congress a yearly report detailing each investigation it opens, including the regional office, start date, and date of the first document request. It would also require an explanation and estimated finish date for any investigation lasting more than three years.
EBSA, the agency enforcing ERISA rules on employer retirement and health plans, would face new reporting duties; businesses and plan sponsors under investigation would be affected without being publicly named.
The bill changes EBSA's internal recordkeeping and reporting practices rather than altering any rules for workers or employers. It could increase public accountability over how long investigations take.
