GHJ has a specially trained Employee Benefit Plan (EBP) Practice with in-depth knowledge of AICPA, ERISA, DOL and IRS requirements related to EBP audits. The EBP Practice currently audits over 50 EBPs. GHJ services all clients with top-level, strategic attention – and employee benefits plans are no different. Partner involvement is protocol, and GHJ maintains attention at all levels throughout the engagement.

GHJ's engagement team also teaches annual EBP trainings to the Firm and has developed templates and tools to facilitate our audit process. The EBP Practice voluntarily adheres to higher standards of audit quality in GHJ's policies, procedures and training related to the performance of employee benefit plan audits. These standards are the benchmark of GHJ's commitment to quality performance and client service.

GHJ has been a member of the AICPA Employee Benefit Plan Audit Quality Center since November 2004. The team has served on the CalCPA EBP Conference planning committee for several years and has served as speakers as well.
