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.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to pay amounts which may become due under this Agreement, the Employer may establish a grantor trust (hereinafter the "Trust") within the meaning of Section 671 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The assets in such Trust shall at all times be subject to the claims of the general creditors of the Employer in the event of the Employer's bankruptcy or insolvency, and neither the Employee nor any beneficiary shall have any preferred claim or right, or any beneficial ownership interest in, any such assets of the Trust prior to the time such assets are paid to the Employee or beneficiary pursuant to this Agreement. The Employer shall credit to said Deferred Compensation Account the amount of any salary to which the Employee becomes entitled and which is deferred pursuant to Section 1 hereof, such amount to be credited as of the first business day of each month. The Employer shall also credit to said Deferred Compensation Account an Interest Equivalent in the amount and manner set forth in Section 3 hereof.
