How Does a Section 125 Plan Work?

When an employer sets up a Section 125 Plan, employees can choose to contribute pre-tax earnings toward eligible benefits such as:

• Health insurance premiums 🏥
• Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) 💳
• Dependent care expenses 👶
• Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) 🏦

Since contributions are deducted before taxes, employees keep more of their paycheck while getting the coverage they need.
