401K Plan (US Based Staff) Company contributes a percentage of salary (based on years of accredited employment) regardless of whether or not employee makes a contribution. 0 - 5 years: 2.5% 6 - 9 years: 5.0% 10+ years: 10.0% The 401K is administered through Fidelity, and there is a wide array of investment options. Via Fidelity’s BrokerageLink option, you can select nearly any investment product (stock, bond, fund, option) typically available to retail investors. In addition to pre-tax and Roth contributions, Shell allows for After-Tax contributions up to a limit. This limit is typically calculated as half the 401K total max limit as set by IRS ($56,000 in 2019) less the pre-tax/Roth contribution limit as set by the IRS ($19,000 in 2019). For example, in 2019 an employee could contribute $9,000 in After Tax contributions in addition to $19,000 in pre-Tax/Roth contributions. $56,000 / 2 = $28,000; $28,000 - $19,000 = $9,000 This enables the option for a “Mega Back Door Roth” within the 401k Plan. In addition to the aforementioned, Shell maintains a Benefit Restoration Plan (BRP) so that if your entitled company contributions would exceed IRS limits, the money is channeled into a separate fund and paid at a later date as taxable deferred compensation. Overall, this 401k Plan is above average when compared to competitor plans both within Oil and Gas, and across industries. //SLRA
