401(k) Pension Plan Safe Harbor Notices Available by October 31

If your cooperative offers the Safe Harbor provision for the NRECA-sponsored 401(k) Pension Plan, watch for a Message Center notification starting October 27. Safe Harbor notices will be released electronically to co-ops with the provision.

The Message Center notification will contain detailed distribution guidelines and a link to the Retirement Plan Documents page on the Employee Benefits website. Download the notice and give it to employees who are eligible for the 401(k) Plan by November 30, 2017.

After distributing the notice, remember to fill out the acknowledgement form, which is located on the Retirement Plan Documents page.

If you have questions about Safe Harbor, find out more about the provision on the Employee Benefits website.

Co-ops with questions about how to distribute the notice may contact the benefits compliance team at 866.673.2299, option 7, or at pension.compliance@nreca.coop.
