Paychex Promotes 401k Automatic Enrollment With White Paper
ROCHESTER, NY, June 16, 2010 -- Paychex, Inc., a leading provider of payroll, human resource, and benefits outsourcing solutions for small- to medium-sized businesses, wants small business owners to know that more employees save for retirement when their 401k plans include an automatic enrollment feature. The company's latest white paper focuses on how 401k auto enrollment plans can benefit both employees and businesses.
Paychex explains in the new white paper, Retirement Readiness for Business Owners and Employees: 401k Automatic Enrollment, that 92 percent of employees participate in 401k plans after they are automatically enrolled, compared to only 72 percent without auto enrollment. Readers can also learn:
- Which employees may be automatically enrolled in 401k plans
- How automatic enrollment can lower plan administration costs and save businesses time in the enrollment process
- How the contribution limits for business owners and key employees can rise with more employees participating in a 401k plan
The new Paychex white paper also covers topics such as how to start a 401k plan for small business, how to select a 401k recordkeeper, and how to select initial investments for automatically enrolled employees.
"By avoiding the administrative hassles of traditional enrollment meetings, business owners can help their employees get started on building a nest egg," said Janice Nearen-Bell, vice president of Human Resource Services Sales for Paychex. "Auto enrollment is a proven way for employees to start saving and to keep at it."
