Retirement Benefits [Abstract]  
PENSION, HEALTH CARE AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS PENSION, HEALTH CARE AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Company provides pension benefits to substantially all full-time employees through primarily noncontributory defined contribution or defined benefit plans and certain health care and life insurance benefits to domestic active employees and eligible retirees.
Health Care Plans
The Company provides certain domestic health care plans that are contributory and contain cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance. There were 30,009, 29,016 and 27,782 active employees covered by the benefits under these plans at December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The cost of these benefits for active employees, which includes claims incurred but not reported, amounted to $347.4 million, $336.0 million and $298.8 million for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Defined Contribution Pension Plans
The Company’s annual contribution for its domestic defined contribution pension plan was $88.9 million, $85.3 million and $77.0 million for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The contribution percentage ranges from two percent to seven percent of compensation for covered employees based on an age and service formula. Assets in employee accounts of the domestic defined contribution pension plan are invested in various investment funds as directed by the participants. These investment funds did not own a significant number of shares of the Company’s common stock for any year presented.
The Company’s annual contributions for its foreign defined contribution pension plans, which are based on various percentages of compensation for covered employees up to certain limits, were $19.4 million, $17.9 million and $22.5 million for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Assets in employee accounts of the foreign defined contribution pension plans are invested in various investment funds. These investment funds did not own a significant number of shares of the Company’s common stock for any year presented.
Defined Benefit Pension Plans
At December 31, 2022, the domestic defined benefit pension plan was overfunded, with a projected benefit obligation of $91.7 million, fair value of plan assets of $119.4 million and excess plan assets of $27.7 million. The plan was funded in accordance with all applicable regulations at December 31, 2022.
The Company has thirty-four foreign defined benefit pension plans. At December 31, 2022, twenty-seven of the Company’s foreign defined benefit pension plans were unfunded or underfunded, with combined accumulated benefit obligations, projected benefit obligations, fair values of net assets and deficiencies of plan assets of $65.8 million, $78.5 million, $20.0 million and $58.5 million, respectively.
The Company expects to make the following benefit payments for all domestic and foreign defined benefit pension plans: $15.4 million in 2023; $16.4 million in 2024; $17.4 million in 2025; $18.5 million in 2026; $19.4 million in 2027; and $114.9 million in 2028 through 2032. The Company expects to contribute $5.5 million to the foreign plans in 2023.
The estimated net actuarial gains and prior service costs for the defined benefit pension plans that are expected to be amortized from AOCI into net pension costs in 2023 are $(1.1) million and $1.1 million, respectively.
The following table summarizes the components of the net pension costs and AOCI related to the defined benefit pension plans:

The Company employs a total return investment approach for the domestic and foreign defined benefit pension plan assets. A mix of equities and fixed income investments are used to maximize the long-term return of assets for a prudent level of risk. In determining the expected long-term rate of return on defined benefit pension plan assets, management considers the historical rates of return, the nature of investments and an expectation of future investment strategies. The target allocations for plan assets are 35% – 65% equity securities, 35% – 55% fixed income securities and 0% – 5% other (including alternative investments and cash).
The following tables summarize the fair value of the defined benefit pension plan assets at December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020. The presentation is in accordance with the Fair Value Topic of the ASC.
