Your New Year Goals, Backed by Real Benefits

New Year’s resolutions are easier to keep when you have the right support. Whether your goals are focused on taking care of your health, finances, stress, or family, your Rockwell benefits include tools and resources designed to help you follow through—all year long. Let’s take a look at some New Year’s resolutions and which Rockwell benefits can help you achieve your goals.

1. Get Healthier (Without Burning Out)
Your Rockwell medical plans come with built-in support to take care of your physical health:

  • Virtual care and same-day visits make it easier to get help without disrupting your schedule.
  • OnTrack, Rockwell’s well-being program, helps you get a picture of your health, focus on prevention and daily habits, and earn rewards you for taking action. To get started, visit enroll.personifyhealth.com.
  • Real Appeal (UHC plan members), an online weight-loss program, offers coaching and simple, sustainable habits to help you lose weight and keep it off. Enroll at ra.realappeal.com.
  • One Pass Select (UHC plan members) gives you access to gyms, fitness apps, and wellness tools. View your subscription options at onepassselect.com.

Small steps add up, and your benefits help remove common barriers like time, cost, and access.

2. Reduce Stress and Improve Your Mental Well-Being
Your emotional well-being matters just as much as your physical health, and support is available now to help.

  • ComPsych Employee Assistance Program (EAP) provides free confidential counseling, stress management support, and life resources for your everyday. Visit guidanceresources.com (code: automation) to talk with a counselor.
  • Calm, the mindfulness and meditation app, is free and can help with sleep, focus, and relaxation. Register for a premium membership and get access to relaxing sounds, masterclasses, meditation sessions and more.
  • Get access to mental health professionals and virtual therapy options with Rockwell medical plans

Whether you’re managing daily stress or navigating a bigger challenge, you don’t have to do it alone.

3. Get Smarter About Money
Financial goals can be tough to achieve but the right tools can help:

  • Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) help you pay for eligible expenses with pre-tax dollars.
  • The 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan helps you build long-term security with a company match and annual contributions.
  • Financial education and planning resources through Fidelity can help you make confident decisions at any stage you’re in.

Even small changes, like increasing your 401(k) contribution by 1% or using tax-advantaged accounts, can make a significant difference in your financial future.

4. Be More Present for Family (and Yourself)
Start the new year strong by using your benefits to better care for the people who matter most.

  • Bright Horizons offers family support and back-up care resources when plans change. Visit clients.brighthorizons.com/rockwell to learn more.
  • Maven (Rockwell medical plan members) offers expert guidance for fertility, parenting, and menopause, plus personalized coaching and education. Visit mavenclinic.com to be connected to a Care Advocate.
  • Paid time off and leave programs help you step away when you need to recharge or support loved ones.

Make this the year your benefits work for you.

Fidelity Education Series for 2026

Review the full schedule of offerings and watch for upcoming details on how to register for webinars and one-on-one consultation sessions.

Strengthen Your Future with a 401(k) Contribution Boost
As you plan for the future, consider reviewing your retirement savings strategy. Even a small increase to your 401(k) contribution—such as 1%—can significantly strengthen your long-term financial security and help you reach your retirement goals. Increasing contributions gradually makes the adjustment easier to manage while steadily building your savings over time. If you want to see how a 1% increase (or more) would affect your take‑home pay, you can model the change using the Model My Pay tool in Workday.

A quick reminder: to receive the full company match, you need to contribute 7% to your retirement savings plan. Contributing less than 7% will leave free money on the table.

To update your contribution rate, log in to NetBenefits at 401k.com or call 1.877.765.4015.

Rockwell 401(k) Plan Updates

Starting in 2026, changes will be made to the Rockwell Retirement Savings Plan (the “401(k)” Plan) as we implement two key provisions of the SECURE 2.0 Act:

  • Roth catch-up contributions: If you’re turning 50 or older in 2026 and your total 2025 FICA wages are over $150,0001, any catch-up contributions you make in 2026 must be made on a Roth basis.
  • Super catch-up contributions: Employees ages 60 to 63 will benefit from an increased catch-up limit, allowing you to contribute up to a total of $11,250 in 2026. Just like other 401(k) contribution limits, this limit may change annually.

Watch your inbox as Fidelity will be communicating with you if you’re impacted by either change.

Your 2025 Year-End Checklist Is Here!

As the year wraps up, here are some important action items to complete before the calendar turns to 2026!

1. Refill Your Prescriptions by December 31
Stock up on medications now to maximize your current plan’s value and ensure you have what you need. Rockwell is transitioning from CVS Caremark to Optum Rx for 2026 prescription coverage—this change should be seamless for you and your family.

2. Prepare for 2026 Retirement Plan Changes
Starting in 2026, the Rockwell Retirement Savings Plan (401(k)) will implement two SECURE 2.0 Act provisions. If you’re turning 50+ in 2026 and earned over $150,000 in 2025 FICA wages, catch-up contributions must be Roth. Employees ages 60–63 can contribute up to $11,250 in super catch-up contributions. Watch for communications from Fidelity if you’re impacted.

3. Book Health Care Appointments Before Year-End
Take advantage of remaining benefits for checkups, screenings, and preventive care before year-end. Many plans cover preventive exams at 100% with no cost to you, and if you’ve met your deductible, you’ll pay less for additional care.

4. Spend Down Your FSA Balances
Spend your Dependent Care FSA funds by December 31, 2025—unused amounts don’t roll over. For Health Care FSA and Limited Purpose FSA, any balance over $660 is forfeited at year-end. You have until March 31, 2026, to submit claims for eligible 2025 expenses. Check your balance at Your Benefits™. If your remaining balance is $660 or less for the HCFSA, it can be carried into 2026 only if you enroll in an FSA for 2026.

5. Access Your 2026 Medical, Prescription Drug, and Dental ID Cards
If you enrolled in a new medical or dental plan, physical cards will arrive in December. Note: If you’re enrolled in UnitedHealthcare, you’ll receive one card for both medical and prescription coverage. If you’re enrolled in Centivo, you’ll receive separate cards for medical and prescriptions.

6. Expect Your New HSA/FSA Debit Cards
First-time Broad Access HSA enrollees will receive HSA information and debit cards from HealthEquity in December. First-time FSA enrollees will receive information and debit cards from Alight Smart-Choice in December.

7. Confirm Your Dependent Information
If you enrolled new dependents for 2026, prepare to provide proof of eligibility (marriage certificates, birth certificates, etc.). Double-check all dependents’ names, Social Security numbers, and dates of birth.

8. Complete OnTrack for Premium Credits
Complete your OnTrack requirements by December 31 to earn credits for your 2026 medical premiums. View program requirements in the 2026 Benefits Guide (page 39).

9. Take Time Off to Recharge
If you have accrued vacation, take time off to relax and recharge before year-end. Your vacation days depend on your tenure at Rockwell—check Epoch or page 36 of the 2026 Benefits Guide for your eligibility.

Emergency Room, Urgent Care, or Virtual Visit? Here’s How to Choose

Choosing the right place to get care can save you time and money. When you’re sick or injured now, heading to the emergency room (ER) or urgent care may not always be the right option. So how do you know where to go?

Here are five ways to get the right care—and save money:

#1 Primary Care Provider (PCP): Your Starting Point
Best for: Annual checkups, prescription refills, ongoing condition management, minor illnesses, and ongoing health concerns
Advantages: PCPs know your medical history and can coordinate care between specialists for personalized treatment.
Limitation: Usually only available during business hours, though many offer after-hours phone consultations

#2 Virtual Visit: Care at Your Fingertips
Best for: Minor illnesses, prescription refills, mental health appointments, follow-up medical appointments, and skin concerns
Advantages: Same-day appointments, no travel time, and often more affordable
Limitations: No physical exams, limited diagnostic capabilities (no CT scans, MRIs, labs), not for urgent situations, like difficulty breathing

#3 Walk-In Clinics: Quick Care for Minor Issues
Best for: Minor injuries like cuts, sprains, or burns; common ailments, such as cold, flu, or sore throat; blood pressure checks; immunizations; and simple prescriptions like antibiotics, blood pressure medications, and pain relievers
Advantages: First-come, first-served basis, often located in pharmacies; most affordable option for minor needs
Limitations: May not have access to your complete medical history, wait times can vary significantly, cannot handle complex or serious conditions

#4 Urgent Care: Enhanced Immediate Care
Best for: Broken bones, cuts needing stitches, moderate injuries, severe cold/flu, nausea/vomiting, rashes, and fevers
Advantages: Doctors on staff, X-ray machines, extended hours including evenings and weekends; faster than ER for nonemergencies
Limitations: May not have access to your complete medical history, wait times can still be substantial during peak hours, limited surgical or advanced treatment capabilities

#5 Emergency Room (ER): For True Emergencies Only
Best for: Chest pain, difficulty breathing, sudden mental changes, stroke symptoms, uncontrollable bleeding, major broken bones, head injuries, sudden vision loss, or seizures
Advantages: Open 24/7 with full medical staff, can handle any medical emergency, with immediate access to specialists if needed
Limitations: ERs prioritize by severity, so nonemergency cases face long waits; expensive option

5 Easy Ways to Achieve Your Retirement Goals

Can you believe we’re halfway through 2025? While you’re thinking about summer vacations and weekend barbecues, take a quick pause to check in on something equally important—your retirement savings.

#1 Check up on Your 401(k) Contributions
When was the last time you logged in to your Rockwell Automation Retirement Savings Plan (the “401(k)” plan) account? With six months left in 2025, you still have plenty of time to make adjustments that could help your financial future.

Take a moment to log in to 401k.com and check in on your 401(k) contributions through our plan administrator, Fidelity. For 2025, you can contribute up to $23,500 if you’re under 50, or $31,000 if you’re 50 or older—either on a pre-tax or Roth after-tax basis. And if you’re in a position to save even more, the Rockwell plan allows regular after-tax contributions to help you increase your retirement savings.

#2 Don’t Leave Free Money on the Table
Let’s talk about one of the perks of your 401(k)—the company match. Rockwell matches 50 cents for every $1.00 you contribute on a pre-tax, Roth after-tax, and regular after-tax basis, up to 7% of your salary. It’s a great way to give your retirement savings a solid boost.

Just a heads-up: Catch-up contributions aren’t eligible for the company match.

#3 Take a Moment to Review Your Investments
Now is a great time to review your current investment elections and make sure they still align with your goals. With the Rockwell Automation Retirement Savings Plan, you have the flexibility to choose how your money grows—from more conservative investments to options with a bit more risk and potential reward.

You can build your own investment strategy or use the experts at Edelman Financial Engines to do the heavy lifting for you with both free and fee-based investment guidance. Call Fidelity at 877.401.5762 and ask to speak to an Edelman Financial Engines advisor who will assist you, or visit 401k.com and click on the Edelman Financial Engines link to get started.

And, if you’re looking for even more investment choices, there’s a BrokerageLink option for added flexibility.

#4 Make Sure to Update Your Beneficiaries
A beneficiary is the individual or group you designate to receive the funds in your 401(k) account if you pass away.

If you’ve gotten married or divorced, had kids, or gone through any major life changes, now’s a good time to check that your beneficiary information is still up to date.

You can review or update your choices anytime through Fidelity at 401k.com.

#5 Check in on Your Retirement Readiness
Want a little extra guidance with your retirement and investment goals? You can meet one-on-one with a knowledgeable Fidelity representative to build a personalized plan that meets your needs to help you feel confident and in control of what’s ahead. You’re welcome to bring your spouse, partner, or financial advisor—invite anyone who makes you feel comfortable! To get started, be sure to register for a virtual consultation.

Remember, you don’t have to do everything at once. Pick one or two items from this list and tackle them this week. Your future self—the one enjoying a well-earned retirement, whether that’s beachside mornings or long-awaited passion projects—will thank you for the smart planning you put in place today.
