Employee Stock Purchase Plan mid-year
enrollment to begin
Eligible participants can get a 15
percent discount
HOUSTON – From May 16 to May 31, all eligible employees
can enroll in Waste Management’s Employee Stock Purchase
Plan (ESPP) as part of the program’s mid-year enrollment.
This represents just one of two annual opportunities for
employees to enroll or make changes to their ESPP election.
When signing up, participants can purchase shares of WM
common stock at a 15 percent discount. Simply decide how
much of your eligible pay you wish to set aside — anywhere
from 1 to 10 percent.
As a stockholder, you are then invested in the company’s
potential growth and profitability. There are two ways to
enroll: Call the Waste Management Benefits Center at
800-964-3373 (7:00 am to 7:00 pm CST) or enroll Online at
www. mywmtotalrewards.com (you will need your user
ID and password).
Once enrolled, the election will remain in effect from July 1
until December 31, 2014. Your after-tax contribution will be
used to purchase the shares of WM stock on either the offering
date (the first business day of July), or the purchase date (the
last business day of December) — whichever is lowest. That
way, you are guaranteed a minimum 15 percent discount.
If you’re currently participating in the ESPP and want to continue
at your current contribution rate, your election will carry
forward to the next offering period. If you have questions,
including on eligibility, please contact the Benefits Center or
review the plan’s prospectus by logging into mywmtotalrewards.com.
