Retirement (401k)
CKE Savings Plan
Take the steps toward a better future today.
Maintain your current lifestyle in retirement.
For each year of retirement, many experts suggest you’ll need at least 80% of your annual preretirement income to maintain your standard of living. And thanks to medical advancements, many people are living longer, which could mean a longer retirement and a need to save a larger amount of money.
Reduce your current tax bill and possibly boost your refund.
Every pretax dollar you contribute to the plan reduces your current taxable income, which means you could lower your overall income taxes. You may also be eligible for the Saver’s Credit, an income tax credit available to some people who contribute to an employer’s retirement plan or IRA.1
Pick from a variety of investment options.
The plan offers a wide variety of investment options so you can personalize your investment portfolio to meet your specific preferences and goals.
Save easily with payroll deductions.
Make it easy to pay yourself first.
Employer Matching Contributions
CKE will contribute $0.25 for every $1.00 that you contribute, up to 6% of your pay.
Try to save at least 6% to ensure you aren’t missing out on receiving the maximum matching contribution.
