Benefit Plan Examples
Salary Continuation Plans
The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993
severely limited the extent to which benefits could be paid to highly
compensated employees from qualified benefit plans. For example,
your company may have a defined benefit retirement (pension) plan
that covers all employees who meet certain qualification requirements,
such as age and length of service. If your plan's benefit payments
are determined by a percentage of final or average compensation,
under current rules, that figure is limited for highly compensated
employees. Because of this limitation, your key executives and highly
compensated employees are likely to retire with benefits that reflect
a considerably lower percentage of final pay than the percentage
received by the remainder of your workforce.
A custom designed Salary Continuation Plan is
one of the most effective benefit plans in rewarding executives
and key employees with specified retirement benefits. A Salary Continuation
Plan eases key employees' burden of searching for post-retirement
replacement income, allowing them to focus on making your company
successful. We will work with you to custom design a Salary Continuation
Plan that will serve to recruit, retain, and reward your most highly
valued, talented employees. Contact
