What Humana's 401(k) plan says about matching contributions

The Plan is a Safe Harbor Plan. The Company matches 125% of a Participant’s eligible pre-tax, Roth (discussed below) and catch-up contributions that combined do not exceed 6% of their eligible compensation after completion of one year of service. After-tax, Rollover, Roth Rollover and Roth Conversion contributions are not matched. The Company may increase, decrease, or cease matching contributions, with approval from the Board of Directors. Matching contributions are funded each pay period and follow the Participants' investment elections.

Employer matchQuoted from the filing aboveAudit report, p. 73 ↗
Match vesting
Participant contributions are fully vested and non-forfeitable. Generally, once a Participant has completed two years of service, the Company Matching Account contributions vest immediately and become non-forfeitable.
Audit report, p. 75 ↗
Automatic enrollment
The Company automatically enrolls eligible employees at a contribution rate of 3% of compensation on their date of hire, unless the employee elects not to participate in the Pre-tax Savings Account or elects a different percentage up to 35%. Automatically enrolled Participants who have not made any contribution election will have their contributions automatically increased by 1% annually, effective with the beginning of the second plan year following the year of automatic enrollment, to a maximum of 15%.
Audit report, p. 73 ↗
Roth contributions
Participants may elect to contribute to a Roth Contribution Account. A Participant may elect to contribute between 1% and 35% of their eligible compensation to the Roth Account. This account is credited with amounts from a Participant’s compensation that they have elected to contribute to the Plan after paying income taxes, including catch-up contributions that are designated as Roth contributions. A participant will pay income taxes on their Roth contribution before they are contributed to the Plan, but while they remain in the Plan, Roth contributions grow tax free, and may be distributed from the Plan tax free under certain circumstances. Federal law imposes a 5-taxable-year period holding requirement for Roth contributions before they may be eligible for tax-free distribution from the Plan.
Audit report, p. 74 ↗
Loans
Participants may borrow from eligible accounts, as defined in the Plan. Generally, the aggregate amount of the loans to a Participant shall not exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the vested portion of eligible accounts. The minimum amount a Participant may borrow is $1,000. Loan transactions are treated as a transfer to (from) the various investment funds from (to) the Participant Notes Receivable. Loan terms range from one to four years or up to ten years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are collateralized by the balance in the Participant's account and bear interest at a rate in accordance with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under ERISA, as determined by the Plan Administrator. Principal and interest are repaid ratably through payroll deductions or directly to the recordkeeper. Loans are deducted proportionately from all accounts and all fund investments.
