We make it easy to save for that great vacation you deserve. Participants in the North Atlantic States Carpenters Vacation Savings Fund are eligible to receive a check from the Vacation Savings Plan to help pay for some much needed time off.
Eligibility & Participation
A portion of employee wages are withheld hourly from their net pay and distributed in the form of a vacation payout annually on December 1st. Interest or Fees may apply annually. Vacation contributions accrue for hours worked after September 30, of any given year that are received prior to October 31 of the current year. For example, vacation contributions for hours worked week-ending September 3, 2016 paid by October 31, 2016 will be included in the December 1, 2016 check. If they are paid after October 31, 2016, then they will not be distributed until December 1, 2017.
