Eligible employees can participate after one month of employment and can contribute on a percentage of wages or a flat dollar amount basis each pay period. Your contributions are vested immediately. If you participate in the 401(k) plan and are not enrolled in a state pension plan, you may be eligible to receive an employer matching contribution (or similar benefit) after 12 months of service. Visit Fidelity NetBenefits at www.401k.com to enroll in the plan or call the Fidelity Service Team at 800.835.5097.
