Employer Contributions

The Fund is financed primarily by participating employers who are signatory to the Writers' Guild of America MBA and who make contributions to the Fund. As of May 2, 2003, participating employers are required to contribute 7.5% of the reportable gross compensation of writers who have covered employment. This percentage will be periodically adjusted based on bargaining agreements. (See "Earnings Qualifying for Employer Contribution and Eligibility".)

If your employer doesn't make the required contributions, you may still be able to receive credit toward eligibility. Contact the Administrative Office for information.
