The San Juan County and Island County EDC will host a free online workshop led by Washington Saves to help business owners understand the new state-facilitated retirement savings program. The session, Introduction to Washington Saves, will take place on Thursday, April 16, from 10-11 a.m. via Zoom.

Washington Saves is scheduled to open in July 2027. State law will require certain employers that do not offer a qualified retirement plan to facilitate employee access to the program. Washington Saves is also open to individuals.

This workshop is free and requires pre-registration at https://sanjuansedc.org/bizlabs. For more information, contact the EDC at 360-378-2906 or info@sanjuansedc.org.
