For plan years beginning after 2007, plans that offer automatic enrollment and meet certain requirements are exempt from the usual nondiscrimination tests that apply to employees' elective deferrals and employer matching contributions.
To be a qualified automatic enrollment feature, the plan must provide for either an employer matching contribution or a profit sharing contribution.
This will allow employees the best of both worlds: Although they won't get tax breaks on the money they contribute, the funds will grow and can be withdrawn tax-free and also are eligible for employer matching contributions.
