Plan Description
The UA Local 467 Defined Contribution & 401k Plan is an individual account plan. The Defined Contribution Retirement Plan, which is a Profit Sharing Plan, each covered employee accrues an account based on the number of Employer contributions made on his behalf.
Eligibility Requirements
All Employees who work in a position for which contributions are required to be made to this Plan are Participants in the Plan and all accounts are 100% vested. Nonetheless, it is possible that pension benefits may decrease because the value of your Individual Account depends upon the yields of the investment selected.
Establishment of A 401K Plan
Effective January 1, 2015, the Defined Contribution Plan was converted to also be a 401K Plan. You may elect to defer a percentage of your eligible compensation into the Plan.

For pre-tax contributions being withheld from your compensation, the percentage you may defer is subject to an IRS annual limit of $19,000 in 2019. The amount may be increased in the future years as determined by the Secretary of the Treasury.
Age 50 and Over Catch-Up Contributions ($6,000 as January 1, 2019)
The Defined Contribution Plan also continues rules on when you can receive a benefit as well as the benefit options upon your death. Please consult the Summary Plan Description for more specifics on these rules (or the full Plan document).
