FAQ
Since a profit-sharing plan is a “qualified retirement plan,” it must also comply with all applicable rules under ERISA.
In general, ERISA does not cover plans established or maintained by governmental entities, churches for their employees, or plans which are maintained solely to comply with applicable workers compensation, unemployment or disability laws.
Traditional profit sharing plans are subject to annual testing to ensure that the contributions made for rank-and-file employees are proportional to contributions made for owners and managers.
Look at Employer Contributions: If your employer contributes to the plan or matches your contributions, it's likely an ERISA plan. Consider Your Employer: If you work for a private company, your plan is more likely to be ERISA. Government and church employees typically have non-ERISA plans.
Health insurance that is offered by a church or a governmental entity is not governed by ERISA. Neither are publicly- subsidized health insurance plans (such as Medicaid, NC Health Choice, or Medicare), or private health insurance bought in the non-group market.
Accounts Covered by ERISA Common types of employer-sponsored retirement accounts that fall under ERISA include 401(k) plans, pensions, deferred-compensation plans, and profit-sharing plans. In addition, ERISA laws don't apply to simplified employee pension (SEP) IRAs or other IRAs.
Examples of non-ERISA health insurance plans can include: Churches or religious organizations. School systems. Government entities. Public workers. purchased on an individual basis through Covered California.
In general, ERISA does not cover plans established or maintained by governmental entities, churches for their employees, or plans which are maintained solely to comply with applicable workers compensation, unemployment or disability laws.
To determine each employee's allocation of the employer's contribution, you divide the employee's compensation (employee "comp") by the total comp. You then multiply each employee's fraction by the amount of the employer contribution. Using this method will get you each employee's share of the employer contribution.
Generally, profit sharing percentages range from 5% to 15% of an employee's annual salary or of the company's pre-tax profits divided among all eligible employees.
