Information and tools for participating employers to fulfill contribution obligations and stay compliant.

Employer Responsibilities

As a participating employer in the Steelworkers Pension Trust, your organization plays a vital role in securing retirement benefits for your employees. Your primary obligations include:

Making timely contributions

Contributions must be remitted in accordance with your collective bargaining agreement. The minimum contribution rate is $0.20 per hour or 2% of gross earnings.

Maintaining records

Keep employment and payroll records that support your reported contributions.

Accurate reporting

Submit accurate contribution reports reflecting the hours worked and amounts owed for each covered employee.

Cooperating with audits

The Trust conducts periodic audits to verify contribution accuracy. Participating employers are expected to cooperate fully.

Contribution Guidelines

Employer contributions to the Steelworkers Pension Trust are established through the collective bargaining agreement between the employer and the United Steelworkers union. The agreement specifies the contribution rate, which must meet the plan minimum of $0.20 per hour worked or 2% of gross earnings, whichever applies.

Contributions are remitted to Zenith American Solutions, the plan’s third-party administrator, which processes all employer payments and maintains contribution records.

Late or missing contributions may result in penalties and interest charges. If you have questions about your contribution obligations, contact Zenith American Solutions at SPT@zenith-american.com.
