BENEFITS

A significant aspect of employment through The Roberts Companies is the benefits package offered to employees. These benefits can represent valuable personal assets in the event of sickness or disability, as well as provide flexibility in planning for a secure retirement.

Our benefits plans are periodically studied to ensure that they are up-to-date and meet the changing needs of our employees. They have been designed to offer our employees a variety of options. This enables an individual to select the kinds of provisions best suited to his or her needs. Certain benefits vary when applied to hourly and salaried employees.

We offer both hourly and salaried employees the following benefits:

• 401(k) Plan

  Employees may voluntarily use our 401(k) Plan to defer taxes while saving for retirement. Working with Diversified Investment Advisors, employees may invest in any of several self-directed investment funds. All Company matching contributions are 100% vested immediately.

• Medical Coverage

  The Company’s medical benefit provides comprehensive coverage for medical, surgical, and hospital care, including X-rays and prescriptions. The Company offers one medical plan – One of the best health plan packages Kaiser Foundation Health Plan offers.

  For hourly employees with benefits, the Company pays for each employee’s coverage and contributes toward dependent coverage. The remaining portion of the dependent coverage cost is paid by the employee through payroll deductions each pay period. Hourly employees with modified benefits can pay the full cost of coverage through payroll deduction. Hourly employees with benefits who waive participation are eligible for payments in lieu of health coverage.
