Benefits
STPNOC maintains various welfare and retirement plans for its employees.
STPNOC offers welfare plans such as medical, life insurance, and vision coverage
with an employee option to choose among various deductibles, co-payments and
employee preumiums. Retirees, who are age 55, with at least five years of
service after age 50, are eligible for continued medical coverage and reduced
life insurance coverage.
STPNOC provides a savings plan that generally matches 70% of the first six
percent of an employee's salary contributed to the plan. Employee's interest in
STPNOC matching contribution begins to vest after two years of service, and is
fully vested after six years of service.
In addition to the savings plan, STPNOC offers a non-contributory pension plan
to its employees. This plan is a final average pay plan and is based upon the
highest consecutive 36 months base pay out of the final 120 months of service.
This plan pays at a rate of 1.5% per year of service (up to 35 years of
service), plus an additional .44% per year of service by the amount which an
employees final average pay exceeds the Social Security average wage base. An
employee vests in the pension plan after five years of service, and is eligible
for full benefits at age 65 (or age 60 with 30 years of service). Reduced
benefits are availalble for retirees who are at least age 55.
