  • What's the difference?

    Pre-tax vs. Roth after-tax contributions

    Pre-Tax Contributions Roth After-Tax Contributions
    • The money goes into your plan account before taxes are deducted, so you keep more of your take-home pay.
    • Since you don’t pay taxes at the time you contribute, you’ll owe taxes on both your contributions and any investment earnings when you withdraw your money in retirement (when you may be in a lower income tax bracket).


    • The money goes into your plan account after taxes are withheld.
    • In exchange for paying taxes now, both your contributions AND any associated earnings can be withdrawn tax-free in retirement, provided you meet two requirements:
      • At least five years have elapsed since your first Roth contribution.
      • You are at least 59½ or the withdrawal follows death or total disability.
    Keep in mind that company contributions are made on a before-tax basis, no matter which contribution type(s) you select.
  • Catch up!

    It’s not too late to make up for lost time. If you’ll be 50 or older this year, take advantage of the opportunity to contribute up to an additional $7,500 in 2025.

  • Meet the match!

    Are you making your money work as hard as you do? Try to contribute at least 5% to take full advantage of the match — otherwise, you’re saying “No, thanks” to free money!

  • What if I don’t enroll?

    For new hires, if you do not actively enroll, you will be automatically enrolled in the plan on the 1 year anniversary of your hire date. You will be automatically enrolled at a contribution rate of 3%. This means 3% of your eligible compensation will be deducted from your paycheck on a pre-tax basis and contributed to your Plan account, unless you designate a different contribution percentage or elect not to participate (“opt out”) by calling 1-800-601-4015 or logging in to Fidelity.

     

    Upon enrollment, you will also be elected to participate in the automatic increase program, which increases your contribution percentage by 1% each year, unless you elect to opt out.

     

    Note: Automatic enrollment and automatic increase program applies to only to the non-union 401(k) plan.

  • Have you named a beneficiary?

    It's important to designate a beneficiary to receive the value of your 401(k) account in the event you die before beginning to receive your benefit. As personal circumstances change, be sure to keep that information up-to-date. Visit the Fidelity website or call 1-800-601-4015 to add or change a beneficiary.
Before investing, carefully consider the funds’ or investment options’ objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. Call 1-800-601-4015 for a prospectus and, if available, a summary prospectus, or an offering circular containing this and other information. Please read them carefully. Investing involves risk, including the risk of loss.
