Your Finances & Your Benefits
401(k)
Mortenson makes it easy and convenient to save for retirement. After 60 days team members are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan and begin taking advantage of the Mortenson $1 for $1 matching contributions up to 4%. 401(k) plans are provided through Fidelity Investments.
Your contributions can be pre-tax, Roth or a combination of both and as long as the total contribution is greater than 4%, you will receive the full 4% match. Mortenson’s match is always contributed on a pre-tax basis.
