Matching Contributions The Employer will make matching contributions in accordance with the formula(s) elected in Part II of this Adoption Agreement Section 3.01.
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.
Welfare, Pension and Incentive Benefit Plans During the Employment Period, Executive (and his eligible spouse and dependents) shall be entitled to participate in all the welfare benefit plans and programs maintained by the Company from time-to-time for the benefit of its senior executives including, without limitation, all medical, hospitalization, dental, disability, accidental death and dismemberment and travel accident insurance plans and programs. In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive shall be eligible to participate in all pension, retirement, savings and other employee benefit plans and programs maintained from time-to-time by the Company for the benefit of its senior executives, other than any annual cash incentive plan.
Member Contributions Each Member and the Manager further acknowledges that it may contribute ideas, knowledge, know-how and, potentially, Confidential Information of such disclosing Member or the Manager to the Company, the employees, agents or contractors of the Company. Each disclosing Member or the Manager shall retain ownership of such Confidential Information but grants to only the Company, not to the individual(s) to whom the information was disclosed in his/her respective personal capacity(ies), the limited right to use such Confidential Information solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Company, and not any individual Member other than the disclosing Member; and each Member and the Manager other than the discloser promises and agrees to not use Confidential Information of a disclosing Member or the Manager for any purpose whatsoever except in connection with the Company and except with the written consent of both the disclosing Member and the Company. For purposes of this Section X, all references to the Company shall include its Affiliates.
