Rider sponsors a defined-contribution retirement plan with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association (TIAA) as the record keeper. Regular part-time employees are eligible to participate on the one year anniversary from date of hire provided they have completed 1,000 hours of service during that time period. Eligible employees must contribute a minimum of 2.5% in order to participate, and the University provides a 2.5% contribution for each participant. Employee and employer contributions are fully vested upon joining the Plan. The contributions may be directed to investment options offered by TIAA and other approved vendors by the University. Supplemental Retirement Annuities, which have certain flexible provisions, are also available.
Part-time employees get pro-rated paid time off depending on hours recorded. The time off is pro-rated based on paid time off for FULL-TIME employees.
