Pension And Profit-Sharing Plans

Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans

We have a 401(k)/profit-sharing plan for all qualifying domestic employees that permits participants to defer a portion of their pay pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. We make matching contributions on behalf of each eligible participant in an amount equal to 100% of the first 3% and an additional 25% of the next 5%, for a maximum total of 4.25% of the employee's compensation. We may make a discretionary contribution based on the participant's eligible compensation, provided the employee is employed at the end of the year and has worked at least 1,000 hours. We also maintain and contribute to various defined contribution and defined benefit pension arrangements for our international employees. We meet the minimum statutory funding requirements for our foreign plans. As of December 31, 2019, the total unfunded portion of the defined benefit obligations is $11.2 million.

Expenses related to our retirement programs were $16.3 million in 2019, $12.4 million in 2018 and $10.1 million in 2017.
