title: How to Open the Door to the Roth 401(k) Savings Opportunity.
abstract: For many employees, Roth 401(k) contributions are a smart move toward strengthening retirement readiness, yet they remain markedly underused. Employers should consider providing the option, educating employees on its value and providing a good modeling tool to help plan participants make the Roth decision. Doing so could both increase overall 401(k) participation and lead employees to save more for retirement--which would help the enterprise meet organizational goals by maintaining high employee engagement and productivity levels and reducing talent-related risk.
