What is CalSavers?

CalSavers is a retirement savings program for private-sector workers whose employers do not offer a retirement plan. This program gives employers an easy way to help their employees save for retirement, with no employer fees, no fiduciary liability, and minimal employer responsibilities.

Employers with five or more employees must participate in CalSavers if they do not already have a workplace retirement plan. The following deadlines to register are based on the size of the business.
