U.S. RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

401(k) Retirement Savings Plan Banner

Caterpillar offers a 401(k) Plan that allows you to save for retirement through your own before-tax or Roth after-tax contributions and company contributions. Our plan recordkeeper, Alight, offers additional savings tools to assist you in making the right investment decisions. The plan offers a wide variety of investment options from which to choose.

New Hires or Newly-Eligible Employees

You’ll receive a packet from the Caterpillar Benefits Center (Alight) soon after your hire date — or once you meet the eligibility requirements, if applicable —with all of the details.

How to Enroll and Make Changes

You can enroll in the 401(k) Plan as soon as you are set up in Alight’s system (usually within 7 – 10 days from your date of hire).

Visit CatBenefitsCenter.com to enroll and make changes to your contributions, investments and beneficiaries.
