A WellSpan
Career:

Employer Contributions

Amount of contribution

WellSpan contributes a base amount equal to 4% of your compensation to the plan. It will make additional contributions on your behalf if you contribute to the plan. It will match half of what you contribute up to 4% of your compensation for a total employer contribution of 6% (4% base + 2% match).

Vesting of contributions

Employer contributions vest once you work three years for at least 500 hours each year.

Reasons to participate

You will need money to live off of in retirement. The contributions made by WellSpan on your behalf are an important and valuable part of your income.

Pre-Tax Employee Contributions

Amount of contribution

You can make pre-tax contributions up to the annual limit. The annual limit is set by the IRS and changes every year. If you choose to make both pre-tax and after-tax contributions, the total amount you can contribute to both may not exceed the annual limit. Individuals who are age 50 or older by the last day of the year can make additional catch-up contributions.

Vesting of contributions

Your own contributions are 100% vested.

Reasons to participate

You will need money to live off of in retirement. The contributions made by WellSpan on your behalf are an important and valuable part of your income but will not be enough to provide for your needs in retirement. You should probably be saving at least 10% of your income.

Pre-tax contributions reduce your compensation for the year for income tax purposes. When you take a distribution from the plan in retirement, both your contribution and any earnings it has made will be taxable.

After-Tax Employee Contributions - Roth

Amount of contribution

You can make pre-tax contributions up to the annual limit. The annual limit is set by the IRS and changes every year. If you choose to make both pre-tax and after-tax contributions, the total amount you can contribute to both may not exceed the annual limit. Individuals who are age 50 or older by the last day of the year can make additional catch-up contributions.

Roth contributions do not reduce your current compensation for income tax purposes, but neither your contribution nor its earnings will be taxed when distributed to you in retirement. Your Roth contributions will be worth more to you in retirement than your pre-tax contributions.
