Where this sits vs national auto-dealer peers.

Per-saver contribution is above the national median — a sign of an engaged workforce. Employer contribution per participant is at or above the median too, confirming the engagement. A separate workforce-retention watch flags a sustained decline in active savers — engagement strength is not the same as headcount stability.

Benchmark Scorecard

Observable, source-backed metrics. No inferred grades or quality scores.

Employer Contribution / Participant
$2,752
vs $852 National Median
Top 10% Nationally

The lagging confirmation of plan health. Below median signals under-investment in workforce retention — the dollar has yet to follow the leading active-saver signal.

Participant Contribution / Participant
$5,734
vs $3,435 National Median
Top 25% Nationally

The leading signal of plan engagement. A rising trajectory precedes the lagging employer-contribution dollar; below median can signal gaps in auto-enrollment or plan design.

Plan Assets / Participant
$98,415
vs $48,309 National Median
Top 25% Nationally

How seasoned the workforce is. Below national median can also indicate higher-than-needed employee turnover.
