U.S. employees have seen their 401(k) balances plunge due to the financial turbulence of the past year. The gap between the money employees have saved and what they'll need to save to maintain their standard of living in retirement has significantly increased. Some employers have suspended the 401(k) match this year, which further decreases employees' sources of retirement income.

Employees must take more aggressive steps to ensure they are saving enough for retirement, including increasing their contributions or working longer.

Employers must respond to the economic and legislative changes that significantly affect their retirement benefits and overall company. More time and resources are needed to address financial and compliance risks.

In this recorded webcast, Hewitt experts address the following questions:

• What actions can you take to help your company during these turbulent times?
  
• How can we assess the impact of 2008?
  
• What changes are other employers making to their defined contribution plans?
  
• How can you help your employees understand how changes affect their retirement plans and your company?
