WSU Retirement Manager new for 2012

We are pleased to inform you that we will open a new full service retirement planning site, called Retirement Manager on January 3, 2012.

As you may be aware, the IRS issued new regulations for all 403(b) plans effective with plan years beginning on or after January 1, 2009. The new final regulations require the plan sponsor to ensure that all loans, hardship withdrawals, in-service withdrawals, and normal distributions are properly made, with all of the pertinent rules followed closely. Retirement Manager will ensure compliance with the IRS new regulations by collecting data from all WSU approved vendors in order to properly perform the non- discrimination (and contribution limits) tests as well as to ensure that all loans and distributions follow the regulations.

New HR Survey Feedback Tool
"How R we doing" 

In consultation with Staff Council, HR has developed a new employee service feedback tool. It is open continuously for employee use. Leaving your name and contact information is optional; however we would encourage providing contact information so any questions or concerns can be addressed.  Any questions or other feedback will be reported and follow up will occur as soon as possible or within three business days. 

HR will report the results of the feedback to Staff Council on a periodic basis. The survey is formatted as "How R we doing."  This survey should allow HR to provide improved service to our employees, as well as an on-going communication and feedback mechanism.
