A Better Way to offer Retirement Benefits

To better serve our Accredited Businesses, BBB Serving Southern Arizona is proud to introduce the BBB 401(k) Multiple Employer Plan (MEP) — a new way to offer retirement benefits that work for both you and your employees.

This innovative plan gives you the power to provide competitive retirement benefits while lowering costs, reducing administrative headaches, and simplifying compliance. By joining together with other employers, your business can leverage economies of scale to save money, increase efficiency, and strengthen your team’s financial future.

Join us at our upcoming event to learn how this program can help you attract and retain top talent, boost employee satisfaction, and even launch a 401(k) plan at no cost for the first three years.
