BENEFITS

401(K) Savings Plan

NECO has established a 401(k) savings plan to provide associates the potential for future financial security for retirement. The savings plan allows associates to elect a percentage of their salary they would like to contribute and direct the investment of your plan account, so you can tailor your own retirement package to meet your individual needs. NECO will match the associate’s contributions up to 3% of the associate’s gross income into the plan per pay period.

The associate’s contribution to the savings plan is automatically deducted from your pay before Federal and State Tax withholdings are calculated;

you save tax dollars now by having your current taxable income reduced.
