Builders and Contractors Trust (BCT) offers a Supplemental Unemployment Benefits (SUB) Plan as a fringe benefit for all hourly employees.
Our SUB Plan helps you profitably comply with prevailing wage laws while providing your employees with sustainable, accessible income during periods of unemployment.
BCT’s SUB Plan lets you take the difference between the stated prevailing wages and your employees' total compensation packages and pay it to a SUB Plan instead of an additional hourly pay. Since the difference is treated as a fringe, it is not subject to labor burden — resulting in cost savings for your business.
Free yourself from the burden of cash raises required to meet prevailing wage work requirements. When the job requires a higher amount than you normally pay your employees, contributing to a BCT Plan can reduce your overhead, taxes* and expenses.
Unlike other traditional benefit plans:
*In certain instances, short week payments may be subject to FICA.
