Retirement
What does retirement look like for you? Maybe you plan to travel the world. Or maybe you’d like to take up some hobbies closer to home. Whatever your goal, it’s important to plan for your own finances so you have the income you’ll need in the future.
One of the best ways to ensure a secure retirement is to start saving as early as possible. Our 401(k) savings plan allows you to save for retirement on a pretax basis. You can begin contributing to the plan at any time once you become eligible and can start making contributions to your account through convenient payroll deductions.
Who is Eligible for the 401(k)?
All regular full-time employees 18 years of age and older are eligible to participate on the first of the month following their hire date.
All other employees are eligible to participate upon completion of 1,000 hours in a consecutive 12-month period or two consecutive years with 500+ hours of service and are 18 years of age or older.
You will be Automatically Enrolled
Automatic Enrollment: Three percent (3%) of your pre-tax pay is automatically contributed to the plan 30 days following your date of eligibility, unless you elect not to contribute. The 3% contribution is automatically invested in a Target Date Fund selected using your estimated retirement year based on your date of birth. If you would like to change or waive the automatic deduction or make elections regarding how you would like your contributions invested, you can contact Vanguard at 1-800-523-1188 or visit www.ownyourfuture.vanguard.com
