Union Proposals

2. Jim will need to calculate the impact of the safety boot and pension proposal on the non-wage impacted benefit calculation in the first year of the new agreement. He will assume each employee works a 40-hour week, 52 weeks per year. Calculate the new non-wage impacted benefit (NWIB that would result from accepting the union’s proposals)? (5 marks)
Add new: Pension Plan Company Contribution of $500,000 in the first year of the new collective agreement.
Add new: Safety Boots Requirement, Company Paid, $50.00 per year per employee.

Explanation / Answer

Number of hours per year per employee = 40*52 = 2080 hours

Safety boot requirements = $ 50 per year per employee = 50 / 2080 = 0.024 addition to NWIB per hour per employee

Pension plan contribution = 500000 / 2080 / Number of employees . number of employees is not provided in the question.

New NWIB = 3 + 0.024 + pension plan contribution .
