We consider empirical processes generated by strictly stationary sequences of associated random variables. S. Louhichi established an invariance principle for such processes, assuming that the covariance function decays rapidly enough. We show that under certain conditions imposed on the pairwise distributions of the random variables in question the restrictions on the rate of decay of the covariance function can be relaxed.
