You may direct a minimum of $1.50 hourly ($1.00 for Rodmen) to the 401(k) Plan. The contribution amount to the 401(k) Plan is a pre-tax contribution.
You may make additional 401(k) contributions in fifty cent increments of your hourly wage up to a maximum total contributions of $10.00 per hour not to exceed the current contribution limits allowed by law. Your 401(k) contributions reduce your taxable income in the year they are made and your account grows tax free until withdrawn upon retirement.
