The Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) is a division of the U.S. Department of Labor. As it states, "The Department of Labor enforces the law by informally resolving benefit disputes, conducting investigations, and seeking correction of violations of the law, including bringing lawsuits when necessary. The Department has benefits advisors committed to providing individual assistance to participants and beneficiaries. Participants will receive information on their rights and responsibilities under the law and help in obtaining benefits to which they are entitled. Contact a benefits advisor by calling toll free at 1.866.444.3272 or electronically at www.askebsa.dol.gov."- EBSA Home Page
