The University’s Retirement Plan Committee recently voted to change the minimum age requirement for employees to be eligible for the defined contribution plan to be more in line with our peer institutions.
Currently, employees must have one (1) year of service (or meet the requirements for previous service) and be at least 25 years old to be eligible for the defined contribution plan. Beginning on July 1, 2025, employees age 21 and older with 1 year of service (or meeting the requirements for previous service) will be eligible for the University’s defined contribution plan.
If you have questions on your eligibility, please reach out to Jenna Holtzner (holtzner@hartford.edu) or if you would like to update your retirement plan contributions, please submit a Salary Reduction Agreement through PeopleAdmin.
