401(k) Retirement Planning

Edited

A 401(k) plan is a retirement savings account that allows you to save a portion of your paycheck before taxes are taken out. This can offer you a valuable opportunity to build your savings for retirement while potentially lowering your taxable income. Please see this link for educational material on Nourish's 401(k) plan.

Key Features of Our 401(k) Plan

  • Auto-Enrollment: If you are a new employee, you will automatically be enrolled in the 401(k) plan at a 3% contribution rate after 30 days of employment. This feature helps you start saving for retirement without taking any extra steps, but you have the option to un-enroll if you prefer not to participate.

  • No Company Match: Please note that Nourish does not offer a matching contribution to employee 401(k) accounts.

  • Provider: Empower is a financial services company on a mission to empower financial freedom for all.

  • Eligibility: This benefit is available to all employees.

  • Flexible Contribution Rates: Once enrolled, you can adjust your contribution percentage at any time within the plan's guidelines (up to the IRS limits).

  • Rollover: You can roll over your previous 401(k) account into the Empower portfolio. If you would like to get more information, please contact Empower at 855-595-4015.
