Employee Benefit Research Institute - www.ebri.org
Established in 1978, the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) is the only nonprofit, nonpartisan organization committed exclusively to data dissemination, policy research and education on economic security and employee benefits. The Institute's mission is to advance the public's, media's and policymakers' knowledge and understanding of employee benefits and their importance to our nation's economy. EBRI has earned widespread regard as an organization that "tells it like it is," based on the facts. As the Bylaws state: "In all its activities, the Institute shall function strictly in an objective and unbiased manner and not as an advocate or opponent of any position." Results to the Small Employer Retirement Survey (SERS) Summary of Findings is also available at www.ebri.org/sers. |
