Benefits and Rewards at SMI
We offer competitive compensation and reward superior performance. Employees are eligible to be recognized in the following ways:
We offer comprehensive health insurance plans for eligible employees and dependents. There are plans to meet the needs of you and your family:
Pre-Tax Premiums: If your health care coverage decisions require you to make a premium contribution, those contributions would be deducted from your pay on a pre-tax basis. That means the actual cost is less than the scheduled contribution amount.
Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs): SMI's FSA's allow you to pay for certain eligible health care and/or dependent day care expenses with tax-free money. You can set aside up to $2,750 to the Health Care FSA and a maximum of $5,000 to the Dependent Care FSA, each year, depending on your marital and tax-filing status. Plan is administered by FlexToday.
401(k) Retirement Plan through Fidelity Investments: Through this Plan, you may set aside up to 90% of your salary (to the annual IRS limits) on a pre-tax basis. You may then invest your money in one or more of the available investment options. Your contributions and investments accumulate on a tax-deferred basis. The company provides an employer match of 50% of salary deferral not to exceed 5% of annual earnings.
