Minimum Employer Contribution Clause Samples

The Minimum Employer Contribution clause sets a required baseline amount or percentage that an employer must contribute toward employee benefits, such as health insurance premiums. Typically, this clause ensures that the employer pays at least a specified portion of the total cost, with the remainder potentially covered by the employee. By establishing a minimum contribution, the clause helps guarantee that employees receive meaningful financial support from their employer, making benefits more affordable and accessible, and ensuring compliance with regulatory or plan requirements.

Minimum Employer Contribution. If this Plan is a Top Heavy Plan in any Plan Year, the contribution for each Non-Key Employee shall be at least equal to a minimum contribution. The Employer shall provide the top heavy minimum contribution under this Plan. If the contribution rate for the Key Employee with the highest contribution rate is greater than or equal to 3%, the minimum contribution shall be 3% of Compensation for each Non-Key Employee. If the contribution rate for the Key Employee with the highest contribution rate is less than 3%, the minimum contribution for each Non-Key Employee shall equal the highest contribution rate for a Key Employee. The contribution rate is the sum of Employer contributions (not including Employer contributions to Social Security) and forfeitures allocated to the Key Employee's Account for the Plan Year divided by the Key Employee's Compensation for the Plan Year. To determine the contribution rate, the Committee shall treat all qualified top heavy defined contribution plans maintained by the Employer as a single plan. For Plan Years beginning after December 31, 1988, the Committee shall not treat Elective Deferrals made to any plan pursuant to a Cash or Deferred Arrangement as Employer contributions for any Non-Key Employee; however, the Committee shall treat Elective Deferrals made to any plan pursuant to a Cash or Deferred Arrangement as Employer contributions for all Key Employees. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section, if a Defined Benefit Plan maintained by the Employer which benefits a Key Employee depends on this Plan to satisfy the nondiscrimination rules of Code 401(a)(4) or the coverage rules of Code 410 (or another plan benefiting the Key Employee so depends on such Defined Benefit Plan), the minimum contribution for a Non-Key Employee shall be 3% of the Non-Key Employee's Compensation regardless of the highest contribution rate for any Key Employee. If the contribution rate for the Plan Year with respect to a Non-Key Employee is less than the minimum contribution, the Employer shall increase its contribution for such Non-Key Employee to the extent necessary so that the contribution rate for the Plan Year shall equal the minimum contribution. If more than one entity maintains this Plan, each entity shall make the additional contribution attributable to the Compensation it pays the Non-Key Employee, unless the members enter into a separate written agreement allocating the responsibility for the additional contribution in a...
