Fidelity to send mailing asking employees to name beneficiaries

Participants in Fidelity retirement plans who have not named a beneficiary will receive a communication from Fidelity next week encouraging them to do so.

Depending on a participant's communication preferences, those without a beneficiary on file will receive either a letter at their home address or an email from Fidelity with instructions on making beneficiary designations.

The June issue of HR Connect provided instructions on how to update beneficiaries for Fidelity and other benefit programs.

Designating beneficiaries ensures that funds are distributed appropriately, and Human Resources encourages employees to review designations each year to be sure no changes are needed.

Faculty and staff may contact the HR Service Center at 49-42222 or hr@purdue.edu for assistance or more information.
