The Standard sends regular email communications to most retirement plan participants. These emails help employees understand their retirement plan benefit, remind them to register online, and encourage them to enroll in the plan if they are eligible. Not all employees will receive all emails. Some employees may be excluded from some or all communications due to their status, balance, or because a topic doesn’t apply to them.
If you haven’t already done so, be sure to add email addresses to your payroll file for participants who aren’t yet registered for Personal Savings Center. Only employees with an email address can receive these helpful details.
