Retirement is no longer a fixed event — and how your equity awards treat retirement-eligible employees shapes their decisions, their financial outcomes, and their sense of fairness. As long-term incentives make up a larger share of total compensation, retirement provisions have become a design choice you can't afford to get wrong. You'll leave knowing how to build practices that balance your recruitment and retention goals with cost management — while supporting employees as they transition out of the workforce.
Key questions this webinar will answer:
- Why and how do companies pay out equity awards to retirees?
- Does retirement treatment vary by employee rank, award type, or employee location?
- What requirements must retirees fulfill to receive award payouts, such as minimum notice periods, continued service requirements, and noncompetes?
- How do companies administer FICA payments on RSUs for employees who are eligible to retire?
A recording of the webinar will be posted shortly after conclusion of the live broadcast.
