Is there a small employer exception for complying with ERISA?

No. Virtually every private-sector employer is subject to ERISA  – there is no size exemption.  This includes corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietorships.   In addition, non-profit organizations are covered as well.  However, the plans of governmental employers and of churches are exempt from the application of ERISA Title I.
