Retirement

One of the best ways to ensure a secure retirement is to start saving as early as possible. Our 401(k) savings plan allows you to save for retirement on a pretax basis. You can begin contributing to the plan at any time once you become eligible and start making contributions to your account through convenient payroll deductions.

Harvard Bioscience offers a 401(k) through Voya. The 401(k) plan allows you to save for retirement and enjoy significant tax advantages. You can contact Voya any time by logging in to voyaretirementplans.com for more information about the plan, your account balance, making contributions, changing investment elections, initiating a rollover or requesting a loan or withdrawal.

Who is Eligible for the 401(k)?

You are eligible to participate in the plan when you are 21 years of age and have 30 days of service.

How Do I Enroll in the 401(k)?

Your plan has an automatic election provision. If you choose not to enroll by selecting your own fund allocations and contribution percentages and not opt out of the automatic election provision, your company will automatically enroll you into a TIAA-CREF Lifecycle Index fund at 4%.

To opt out or to change your contribution, visit voyaretirementplans.com.
