Section 125 Cafeteria
Plans
Imagine an employee benefit that could actually save your company money!
Section 125 Cafeteria Plans do just that. By allowing employees to save
tax-free money for certain expenses, these plans reduce their taxable income,
which in turn reduces your company's share of taxes (Social Security,
Unemployment, Medicare) on their earnings. To see how much these plans can save
your company, use our online calculator.
