Deferral Increases Could Be On the Way
We're dedicated to helping your employees save for retirement at Ohio DC. One of the ways we do that is to encourage our participants to take part in the SMarT Plan. It's an annual automatic increase plan and most employees like to use January as the time when they have those increases take place. From time to time, this catches unsuspecting employers off guard, so if you receive an unusually large January Change Report from us, that's likely the reason. Your employees and Ohio DC staff thank you for quickly making these changes.
Employer Recognition Resolutions Announced
Ohio DC's staff sees how hard our employers work every day to make sure your employees have the best resources available to them when saving for retirement. Whether you're inviting us in to conduct on site visits, distributing educational materials to your staff or conducting lunch and learn webinars, you keep them all engaged in their retirement planning. For this reason, each year we present some of our extraordinary employers with formal Recognition Resolutions from our Board of Trustees. If you would like to see the latest group of award winners, follow this link .
