401k and Seasonal Employees

2009-07-03T08:24:16+00:00

Hey Coly,

I don't know about Xanterra or Aramark, but I do know that at Princess Cruises, your hours of service play into the 401(k) picture. Seasonal employees are not full-time, and therefore, not eligible to participate in the program, but the time in does help with vesting, or ownership, of the company contribution for those who switch to full-time employment at some point.

I used to do the benefits for Princess so if you have any other questions, please let me know.

Cool Works is a great site for people looking to lead more interesting lives.

However, I opened my friends link and realized one thing: I don't have any. It's sad really.

Thanks for the link. I notice he only has about a week between jobs. My Yellowstone agreement goes until October 20th but a lot of the ski resorts don't open for winter until the end of November. That's a pretty long vacation.

Hey Douglas,

You might want to read a recent entry by Keith Larson that tells how he plans to fill up the time between jobs: http://my.coolworks.com/profiles/blogs/september-2009-trip-plans

My only real concern about this whole thing is how to handle the time gap between seasons. There appears to be about a month from when summer ends and the winter season begins. Driving all the way "home" for just a few weeks doesn't seem too appealing. Any thoughts on how you might handle it?
