Employee Retirement Account (ERA)
For eligible employees, Cargill funds this portable retirement account, which provides an annual contribution of 2.5–7% of your eligible pay, depending on your age and years of service. You are immediately eligible for the ERA and are vested after three years of service. You control where the money is invested from a selection of funds. If you do not make an election, Cargill’s contribution will automatically be invested in the Vanguard Target Retirement Fund that most closely matches the year in which you will reach age 65.
You will receive an ERA kit upon receiving your first contribution in the plan. See chart below:
