401k Match Rules

My son graduated from college in May and started working on June 1. On December 1 he is eligible to begin 401k contributions and the company has a 6% match. Is the 6% match based on salary starting on December 1 or June 1? If he contributes more than 6% in December could that extra above 6% also be matched? Thanks. Ray



It is typically based on the salary starting in December, ie one month of salary.

Thank you
