Human Resources
FTE, or full-time equivalent, is a unit that converts employee hours into a measure of workforce size.
What Is FTE?
FTE stands for full-time equivalent. It represents the number of hours a full-time employee works, used as a baseline to measure the contribution of part-time or variable-hour workers. A 1.0 FTE is one employee working full-time hours; a 0.5 FTE is an employee working half of those hours.

Retirement
A 401(k) rollover transfers retirement savings from one qualified account to another without triggering immediate taxes or penalties. This process helps employees consolidate savings and maintain tax advantages when changing jobs or retiring.
