Employer Contributions 16.01 Employer contributions shown in the tables in the attached appendices shall be made on all hours of work performed which are included in computing the eight (8) hours per day and forty (40) hours per week after which overtime is payable and shall be recorded on a standard remittance report provided by the Union and remitted on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of the month following the month for which contributions are due and payable, to the Trust Funds. Hours of work performed are interpreted to mean daily travel time, daily working time, reporting time, and, if the employee is required to perform a welding test, testing time. Contributions for overtime hours will be calculated as straight time hours. The Employer shall provide each employee covered by this Agreement with a statement with each weekly paycheque stating the total number of hours reported for contributions to the Pension and Health & Welfare Funds on behalf of that employee for the period covered by the paycheque.
16.02 All such funds due and payable to the above funds shall be deemed and are considered to be Trust Funds. It is expressly understood that training funds are not wages or benefits due to an employee and industry promotion funds are deemed to be dues for services rendered by the Association.
16.03 The Board of Trustees of the respective Trust Funds shall have authority to promulgate such agreements, plans and/or rules as may be necessary or desirable for the efficient and successful operation and administration of the said Trust Fund, including provisions for an audit, security, surety and/or liquidated damages to the extent that such may be necessary for the protection of the beneficiaries of such Trust Funds. In the event that any Employer is delinquent in his contributions to the above funds for more than thirty (30) days, the Employer and the Association shall be notified of such delinquency. If after five (5) days from such notice such delinquency has not been paid, the Employer shall pay to the applicable funds as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the arrears for the month, or part thereof, in which the Employer is in default. Thereafter interest shall accumulate at the rate of two percent (2%) per month (24% per year compounded monthly) on any unpaid arrears, including liquidated damages.
16.04 Any and all agreements, plans or rules established by the Boards of Trustees of the respective Trust Funds shall be appended hereto and shall be deemed to be part of and expressly incorporated herein and the Employer and the Union shall be bound by the terms and provisions thereof.
16.05 The Employer shall not be required to make additional contributions or payments to any Industry Funds established by the Union or its Local Unions nor to any such funds established by Provincial or Territorial Government orders, regulations, or decrees for the purpose of providing similar benefits, it being understood and agreed that the contributions for herein, or any portions thereof shall be deemed to be in lieu of and/or shall be applied as payments to such funds. This provision shall not be applicable to any national funds or plans having general application and established by an Act of the Government of Canada.
16.06 In the Province of Ontario, the Trustees/Administrator of the employee benefit funds referred to in this Agreement shall promptly notify the Local Union of the failure by any Employer to pay any employee benefit contributions required to be made under this Agreement and which are owed under the said funds in order that the Program Administrator of the Ontario Employee Wage Protection Program may deem that there has been an assignment of compensation under the said Program in compliance with the Regulations to the Ontario Employment Standards Amendment Act, 1991, in relation to the Ontario Employee Wage Protection Program.
16.07 The parties hereto agree that contribution rates for the trust funds listed herein do not include any Provincial or Federal taxes.
Employer Contribution (a) An Employer contribution for health and dental benefits will only be made for each active employee who has at least eighty (80) paid regular hours in a month and who is eligible for medical insurance coverage, unless otherwise required by law.
(b) It is understood that the administrative intent of this Article is that the Employer contribution is made for individuals who are participants in the medical insurance coverages. Participation will mean that eligible less-than-full-time employees who drop out of coverage will be considered to participate. Additionally, employees who elect to opt out of coverage for a cash incentive will be considered to participate.
Can I Roll Over or Transfer Amounts from Other IRAs or Employer Plans If properly executed, you are allowed to roll over a distribution from one Traditional IRA to another without tax penalty. Rollovers between Traditional IRAs may be made once every 12 months and must be accomplished within 60 days after the distribution. Beginning in 2015, just one 60 day rollover is allowed in any 12 month period, inclusive of all Traditional, Xxxx, SEP, and SIMPLE IRAs owned. Under certain conditions, you may roll over (tax-free) all or a portion of a distribution received from a qualified plan or tax-sheltered annuity in which you participate or in which your deceased spouse participated. In addition, you may also make a rollover contribution to your Traditional IRA from a qualified deferred compensation arrangement. Amounts from a Xxxx XXX may not be rolled over into a Traditional IRA. If you have a 401(k), Xxxx 401(k) or Xxxx 403(b) and you wish to rollover the assets into an IRA you must roll any designated Xxxx assets, or after tax assets, to a Xxxx XXX and roll the remaining plan assets to a Traditional IRA. In the event of your death, the designated beneficiary of your 401(k) Plan may have the opportunity to rollover proceeds from that Plan into a Beneficiary IRA account. In general, strict limitations apply to rollovers, and you should seek competent advice in order to comply with all of the rules governing rollovers. Most distributions from qualified retirement plans will be subject to a 20% withholding requirement. The 20% withholding can be avoided by electing a “direct rollover” of the distribution to a Traditional IRA or to certain other types of retirement plans. You should receive more information regarding these withholding rules and whether your distribution can be transferred to a Traditional IRA from the plan administrator prior to receiving your distribution.

Former Employer Information I agree that I will not, during my employment with the Company, improperly use or disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former or concurrent employer or other person or entity and that I will not bring onto the premises of the Company any unpublished document or proprietary information belonging to any such employer, person or entity unless consented to in writing by such employer, person or entity.
Special Maternity Allowance for Totally Disabled Employees (a) An employee who:
(i) fails to satisfy the eligibility requirement specified in subparagraph 17.02(a)(ii) solely because a concurrent entitlement to benefits under the Disability Insurance (DI) Plan, the Long term Disability (LTD) Insurance portion of the Public Service Management Insurance Plan (PSMIP) or the Government Employees Compensation Act prevents her from receiving Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan maternity benefits, and
(ii) has satisfied all of the other eligibility criteria specified in paragraph 17.02(a), other than those specified in sections (A) and (B) of subparagraph 17.02(a)(iii), shall be paid, in respect of each week of maternity allowance not received for the reason described in subparagraph (i), the difference between ninety-three per cent (93%) of her weekly rate of pay and the gross amount of her weekly disability benefit under the DI Plan, the LTD Plan or via the Government Employees Compensation Act.
(b) An employee shall be paid an allowance under this clause and under clause 17.02 for a combined period of no more than the number of weeks during which she would have been eligible for maternity benefits under the Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance Plan had she not been disqualified from Employment Insurance or Québec Parental Insurance maternity benefits for the reasons described in subparagraph (a)(i).
