What is a 401K plan?

• • A 401(k) plan is a qualified Secureone-sponsored retirement plan that eligible employees may enroll into to make salary-deferred contributions on a post-tax and/or pretax basis. 

What type of 401K plan does Secureone offer its employees?

• • There are two basic types of 401K offiered: Traditional and Roth. 
    • Traditional: With a traditional 401(k), employee contributions are deducted from gross income. This means the money comes from your paycheck before income taxes have been deducted. As a result, your taxable income is reduced by the total amount of contributions for the year and can be reproted as a tax dediction for that tax year. No taxes are due on either the money contributed or the investment earnings until you withdraw thew money, usually in retirement. 
    • Roth: Contributions are deducted from your after-tax income. This means contributions come from your pay after income taxes have been deducted. As a result, there is no tax deduction in the year of the contribution. When you withdraw the money during retirement, though, you don't have to pay any additional taxes on your contribution or on the investment earnings.

What contributions does Secureone offer through the 401K program?

• • Secureone offers a 100% match of up to 3% of the employees salary. An employee can contribute more than 3%, but Secureone will only match up tto 3%.
  • Additionally, Secureone pays for employees to have access to the learning center, which can guide the employee on how to properly invest the money in their 401K account. 

I have specific questions about my 401K plan, who should I talk to?

• • Please communicate all questions to our 401K program administrator, ADP at (800) 695-7526
