Upcoming Events for Business Owners & Managers

Paychex reminds us that your annual retirement income should be at least 70 percent of your annual working income.  With the prospect of reduced pensions and social security payments, many people may face a shortfall.  A 401(k) plan can help bridge the difference.  A 401(k) plan offers a number of advantages for both your employees and your business.  Find out more through Paychex’s free webinar on Thursday, April 7, 2011 from 2:00 pm to 2:45 pm ET at www.paychex.com/seminars/401k.
