employer not paying insuracne

[macfar]

My employer has been taking out money from my checks for health and dental insurance as well as 401k. The problem is that they haven't been paying the insurance company and the policy was canceled. The business was closed down 12/19/2008. What action do I take?

First thing Monday morning, call the US DOL and file a complaint. Not making payments to 401k plans is something employers go to jail for.

Is there anything I can do about the health and dental insurance? A way to get the money back that was deducted from my pay check for these?

The US DOL can help you with that as well.
