Situation before our help:Â
Company did not have an existing retirement plan.Â
Updates implemented:
Established retirement plan.
- 60 day eligibility – helps employer verify employees are a good fit and weed out poor fits 6% automatic enrollment – studies show that the opt out rate is negligible up to this percentage
- 4% Safe Harbor Match – incentivizes employees to maintain the automatic enrollment
- Added profit sharing with 3 year cliff vesting schedule – golden handcuffs to keep and retain good employees
- Profit sharing is intended to be 6%/yr to create 10% total employer contribution to the plan for long-term employees
- With the 6% automatic enrollment and the 10% employer matching, total contribution adds up to be 16% which would put majority of individuals on track for saving the right deferral amount to achieve a successful retirement outcome.
