OTHER BENEFITS
401(k) Retirement Savings Program
Burnham provides employees with the opportunity to build savings for long term financial goals, such as
retirement, through a 401(k) plan administered by Principal Financial Group. You are eligible to enroll in the
Burnham 401(k) plan on the first day of the month following three months of service.
You can defer a percentage of your annual salary up to the IRS maximum. If you are 50 years or older during
the plan year, you may contribute a catch-up deferral.
