Retirement Basics Plus & AUREUS Website Training
URS will host two Retirement Basics Plus & AUREUS Website Navigation trainings in February.
They cover basic retirement laws and key details on some of the more complicated topics of providing URS benefits to your employees. They will also include AUREUS website navigation in preparation for our new system going live on March 30, 2026.
All staff members who participate in the administration of URS retirement benefits are encouraged to attend. If you're new to the administration of URS benefits, this training is a great place to start. If you're already established in handling these duties, this training provides a helpful refresher.
Lunch will be served.

AUREUS Webinars in February
To help employers prepare for AUREUS transition, URS is offering four webinars in February. During these webinars, we'll visit the actual AUREUS employer portal to show you what to expect, where to find what you need, and provide demonstrations on how to use some of the AUREUS tools.
Roth 401(k) and Roth 457(b)
URS is adding the Roth 401(k) and Roth 457(b) to our Savings Plan lineup. Employers can choose whether to offer these plans, which will be available after AUREUS launches.
To adopt them, simply fill out a Roth 401(k)/457(b) Designated Roth Service Agreement Form and return it to URS. We must receive your form by March 6, 2026 in order to have them available to your employees when AUREUS launches on March 30, 2026.
What are Roth 401(k) and 457(b) plans? How can they benefit my employees? How do I offer them?

Help Your Employees Save for a Secure Retirement
Opt for automatic enrollment in URS Savings Plans to increase employee participation. Studies show about 40 percent of employees don't participate in their employer’s retirement savings plans. However, automatic enrollment increases participation to about 88%*.
With automatic enrollment, new employees automatically participate in URS Savings Plans at a percentage the employer sets. The employee can proactively opt-out at any time.
