The Company made cash contributions of $10.0 million in January 2018 and April 2017, respectively, to its pension plans. Additional contributions, if any, for the remainder of 2018 have not yet been determined. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, the Company had accrued $33.2 million and $43.3 million of pension liability within “Other long-term liabilities” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Defined Contribution Plans

 

The Company has defined contribution plans covering certain salaried associates, non-union hourly paid associates and certain union associates (the “Plans”). The Plans permit associates to defer a portion of their pre-tax and after-tax salary as contributions to the Plans. The Plans also provide for Company-funded discretionary contributions as well as matching associates’ salary deferral contributions, at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Company recorded expenses of $1.8 million, for the Company match of employee contributions to the Plans for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $1.9 million in the corresponding period  in 2017 and $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
