Under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), if this duty is compromised, either intentionally or unintentionally, fiduciaries can be held personally liable for losses. Any employee who has discretionary authority over a plan or who assists in its administration can be a fiduciary and thus be exposed to liability.
