401k and Pension Plans
401(k) PLAN
You will be automatically enrolled with a pre-tax payroll deduction of 2% of eligible earnings after 30 days of employment. However, you can elect to start sooner, change your contribution rate, or opt out of automatic enrollment. EVRAZ will match 50% of the first 4% of eligible pay that you contribute to your Plan account. Company matching contributions are automatically vested and are contributed on a pre-tax basis each pay period.
You can also choose your funds and designate your beneficiaries, all on the Voya website. If you do not make an election, you will automatically be invested in an age appropriate Vanguard Target Retirement Fund. Visit evraz.voya.com and register to get started. Once logged in, you can designate to contribute eligible pay in combined pre-tax and/or Roth 401(k) contributions each pay period up to the federal limits. You may roll over anybalances from a prior employer’s qualified retirement plan to your Plan account.
Pension Plan
The Pension Plan for Bargaining Employees of EVRAZ Rocky Mountain Steel is designed to provide you with a monthly income when you retire. Normally, you may draw your full benefit beginning at age 65. However, if you have at least 15 years of service, you may draw your full benefit beginning at age 62, or a reduced benefit as early as age 55. The monthly pension that is paid to you once you retire depends on your length of service and the rate in effect during each year of service. The monthly benefit is $84 per year of service, for service years beginning on or after January 1, 2023.
Vesting
The pension plan has a five-year vesting period. Vesting refers to the ownership of your account. After five years of service, you are fully vested in the pension plan. If you retire or separate from the company prior to completing five years of service, you do not have a vested benefit in the pension plan.
