Services - 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan

ESS’s philosophy is that a retirement plan is one of the most important benefits employers can offer. Most financial advisors will tell employees that a 401(k) retirement savings plan is the best way to save for retirement. Employer Support Services, Inc.’s 401(k) plan allows its clients to offer a high quality retirement plan to their employees at a very minimal cost.

Flexibility, service, and low maintenance are employer keys to a successful plan. Investment options, service, and education are employee keys to a successful plan. ESS delivers all of these to its clients and their employees.

When utilizing ESS’s retirement savings plan employers no longer have to worry about plan documents, summary plan descriptions, accumulating payroll and contribution data for discrimination testing, audits, and 5500 filings.
