Get Mpiphp Motion Picture Industry Pension & Health Plans Form 3 2018-2025

To qualify for healthcare insurance coverage through the MPIPHP, you must first be credited with 600 hours of work within a 6-month qualifying period. Contributions are made on the basis of 60 hours of work per week.

The Individual Account plan is much like a traditional 401(k) plan in that upon retirement, you will have access to a pre-tax amount equaling the total contributions as well as any interest earned. You are vested in this plan after a qualified year with at least 400 hours worked.

Pension plans require your employer to contribute money to your plan as you work. Once you retire, you earn the accrued pension money divided into monthly checks. In most cases, a formula determines the amount you receive. Some of the formula variables include your age, compensation and years of service to the company.

Participants to the MPI Pension Plan participate in two Pension Plans funded by your employer. The longer you work under a union contract, the more contributions your pension will receive and the more benefits you will have. The two plans are the Defined Benefit Plan (DB) and the Individual Account Plan (IAP).
