What The Erisa Industry Committee does
Mission
The Erisa Industry Committee (eric) was formed to promote and advance the common interest and welfare of large employers who establish and maintain employee benefit plans (representing solely the perspective of large plan sponsors). It is the only (continued on schedule o)national association that advocates exclusively for large employer plan sponsors on health, retirement, paid leave, and compensation public policies at the federal, state, and local levels.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Eric provides the bridge between those who craft the rules and those who must comply with them as the one organization that exclusively represents the health, retirement, paid leave, and compensation public policy priorities of large employers before federal, state, and local governments. Eric fights against employer taxes, mandates, and compliance burdens, while advocating for policies that allow employers to offer benefits effectively, efficiently, and uniformly to their employees across the country. Eric advocates for its member companies in litigation as well to fight against state and local mandates on employer benefit plans that are regulated by federal erisa law.(continued on schedule o)driven by and for large employers, eric represents the plan sponsor perspective; the specific goals of our corporate members are the sole focus of eric's actions.
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $4.0M to $5.3M (+33%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 7% · 2023 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
