A meeting on October 10 will bring the idea of portable workplace retirement savings accounts to Santa Barbara’s small companies and their workers without retirement benefits. A California law passed in 2016 starts with companies of more than 100 employees this year and allows employees to voluntarily opt-in via paycheck or a private retirement account to CalSavers. By 2022, the law will include companies with five or more employees. Learn more at the 5:30 p.m. meeting at the Funk Zone Impact Hub (10 E. Yanonali St.) organized by the National Association of Women Business Owners (members $15/guests $20). More information is also at treasurer.ca.gov/scib/.
