Q


Dear Workforce:


Is there a law or standard time frame a company must follow when transferring employees’ money to the company 401(k) plan? We sometimes allow up to 10.


–Anne Harney, Human Resources Director, Collins Engineers, Inc.


A Dear Anne:


You have little to fear.


You have 15 business days from the time you received the money or the money was placed in your general business account.
