RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT 401(K) PLAN CHANGES AM I BEING FORCED TO ENROLL? Any employee who is scheduled for automatic enrollment in the Plan can opt out if they do not want to make contributions to the Plan. The deadline to opt out is Wednesday December 28, 2022. In addition, all Plan participants can change their individual contribution elections at any time through the ABG website or portal located on the intranet under Quick Links>Human Resources>401k Enrollment. There are no required or mandatory contributions to the Plan. AM I STUCK WITH MY ELECTION FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR? HOW OFTEN CAN I CHANGE MY ELECTIONS? Employees may change their contribution elections on a payroll period basis, as long as they submit the change to the ABG website/ portal early enough for the HR Department to input the requested changes for payroll processing. IF I MISS THE DEADLINE TO OPT OUT OF AUTOMATIC ENROLLMENT, CAN I STOP MY CONTRIBUTIONS AND GET A REFUND? Yes. If you are automatically enrolled in the Plan and do not wish to be, you can stop your contributions at any time. Also, there is a very limited period of time (60 days from your enrollment date) when you can request a refund. IS IT POSSIBLE TO ROLL MY OTHER 401K INTO THE GRHC 401K? Yes. The Plan accepts rollover contributions from other employer plans and certain individual retirement accounts (IRAs). Contact the HR Department for more information.
