ILWU-PMA Savings 401(k) Plan Longshore, clerk and foreman registrants may elect to defer, in increments of $1, up to $12 per hour paid each payroll week, into their 401(k) accounts. Participants age 50 and older may elect to defer, in increments of $1, up to $12 per hour paid each payroll week, an additional amount, called a Catch-up Contribution. Deferrals and Catch-up Contributions are subject to annual statutory limits. Participants may elect to defer any percentage, up to 90%, of their vacation paychecks into the 401(k) Plan. Effective January 1, 2016, the Plan offers a Roth contribution option. Each year, the Employers contribute an amount sufficient to provide to the 401(k) account of each registrant, who has established a pension qualifying year in the previous payroll year, a contribution for qualifying hours paid by PMA member companies. The employer contributions are made to each account as soon as practicable following the end of each contract year. Registered walking bosses/foremen receive $5 per qualifying hour up to a maximum of 2,240 hours and longshore and clerk registrants receive $1 per qualifying hour up to a maximum of 2,000 hours. Beginning with the 2008 plan year, a "third-shift" conversion factor was applied to qualifying hours worked during the third shift. Vacation Plan A basic one-week or two-week vacation is paid according to the qualifying hours credited an eligible registrant in the previous payroll year. An individual who is registered and qualified on December 31 of the calendar year in which the vacation is earned receives a vacation with pay.
