Wellbeing Wednesday: New URS Member Portal

Enhancing your financial wellbeing is easier than ever with the launch of the new URS member portal. DHRM has released the April Benefit of the Month with updates to employee retirement benefits, including the introduction of flexible Roth 401(k) and Roth 457(b) savings plans. These new post-tax options offer unique advantages over traditional plans:

Tax Flexibility: Contributions are made with post-tax dollars, providing a tax-free withdrawal option during retirement.
Fewer Restrictions: These plans have no income limits for high earners and do not require minimum distributions.
Higher Limits: Employees can take advantage of higher contribution limits compared to a Roth IRA.

More information is available on the URS FAQ page regarding these new savings options.

Also, get ready for Open Enrollment, which runs from Monday, April 20, through Friday, May 29. Watch your email for virtual meeting details.
