My paper is written as an analytical paper because it breaks down some of the

requirements that an employee must understand in an effort to become familiar with
the Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Understanding the
different types of plans that are available and what affects they will have on
individuals will lesson the burden of frustration when the time comes for employees
to retire and maintain the same standard of living. All Americans, regardless of their
age, must be allowed to participate in such programs to help minimize the conditions
of dependency and isolations that could occur without this aide. The quality of life
for Americans in their later years will become crucial, because they will be dependent
on these plans to help in needed services for their future.

8. Conclusion
Being retired from an establishment or company is a lifetime dream for all employees as
they prepare themselves for lifes challenges after working for so many years. For many
older citizens, continuing to work past the normal retirement age will not be an option if

they have not invested enough monies in their retirement accounts or pension and benefit
plans for the future. Analysts are mixed and not sure if the economy will go into a
recession, however; as we strive to retire we must be prepared. Employees can prevent
this from happening by, increasing employment opportunities, increasing the allowable
mandatory retirement age, creating new programs so that employers retain and possibly
re-enter older workers back into our labor force; including the private and community
service sectors. It is very important and beneficial that an employee is aware of all the
different types of plans available, and that they understand what they are entitled to under
the Employment Retirement Income Security Act.

10. Plagiarism can be sum up as any words, ideas, or production that have not originated
from the individual intentionally or unintentionally. One example of plagiarism is
reprinting diagrams, illustrations, charts, pictures, or other visual materials. If a
finance chart from the Federal Reserve is copied into a paper by a student and is not
cited in the paper. Example two, not using quotation marks around key phrases or
words that the idea's originator used to describe the idea. Free at last, free at last;
thank God Almighty, we are free at last. Dr. Martin Luther Kings, I have a Dream

Speech; Copy right 1963. Example three, hiring someone else to write your research
paper, or copying another students research paper and presenting it as if it were your
own.

Transitions are usually one or several sentences that "transition" from one idea to
the next. Transitions can be used at the end of most paragraphs to help the
paragraphs flow one into the next.
