The City of Atlanta implemented a mandatory 401(a) Defined Contribution Plan for full-time permanent general employees (not including sworn police officers and firefighters) hired on or after July 1, 2001.
Effective November 2005, this plan was amended to exclude full-time permanent general employees hired after that date that are classified “overtime eligible” or are in pay grade 18 or below. These employees will participate in the City of Atlanta General Employees Defined Benefit Pension Plan.
Effective September 1, 2011, all new hires at a pay grade less than 19, as well as sworn Police and Fire Department employees, are required to participate in the Combination Plan (with both a defined benefit and a defined contribution).

Employees eligible to participate in the 401(a) Defined Contribution Plan must complete an enrollment form and make their investment fund selections during their onboarding process. For enrollment assistance, including investment education, please call Prudential Financial Services at 877-778-2100.
