Why does Assurant Employee Benefits pay the employer portion of FICA during the Initial FICA period but not during the Return-to-Work FICA period?

Assurant Employee Benefits’ FICA Plus service under which we pay the employer portion of FICA applies only to benefits paid during the initial FICA period. Upon a claimant’s return to work, we transfer the responsibility for the employer portion of FICA back to the policyholder. We do offer several options to our policyholders for handling the employer portion of FICA in return-to-work situations and notices are sent periodically to policyholders advising them of such options.
