If employees care, HR cares.

Your Human Resources manager is one of the key influencers for which 401(k) options are available to you. They are typically the key liaison between the company and an external 401(k) advisor to the company. That advisor often convenes a meeting of the company’s 401(k) committee each quarter, and the head of HR and the advisor typically coordinate on topics to cover ahead of that meeting.
