CalSavers Compliance Made Easy: How Nuage Digital Can Help Your Business!

California’s CalSavers Retirement Program ensures that private-sector employees without access to a workplace retirement plan can save for their future. If your business has 5 or more employees and doesn’t offer a retirement plan, registration is mandatory. At Nuage Digital, we not only help you understand your obligations but also simplify compliance, so you can focus on growing your business.

Understanding CalSavers and What It Means for Your Business

CalSavers allows employees to contribute directly from their paycheck into a Roth IRA (or Traditional IRA if eligible). Employers are responsible for facilitating payroll deductions and registering on www.calsavers.com, but the program handles all administration.
