Download as PDF khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 226 / Monday, November 27, 2023 / Proposed Rules accordance with the requirements of paragraph (f)(1) of this section. Plan M requires Employer G to make a nonelective contribution on behalf of each eligible employee equal to 2 percent of the compensation of the employee for the plan year. (B) Based on these facts, long-term, part-time employees are excluded for purposes of determining whether Plan M satisfies every provision under paragraph (f)(1)(i) of this section for the plan year (to the extent the provision would otherwise apply to Plan M), including the nondiscrimination requirements of section 401(a)(4). Accordingly, any nonelective contribution made on behalf of a longterm, part-time employee for the plan year is disregarded for purposes of determining whether nonelective contributions made for the plan year satisfy the nondiscrimination requirements of section 401(a)(4). (ii) Example 2. (A) Employer H maintains Plan N. Plan N provides that all long-term, part-time employees are excluded from the application of the vesting and benefit requirements of section 416(b) and (c). Plan N requires Employer H to make a nonelective contribution on behalf of each eligible employee who is credited with at least 1,000 hours of service during the plan year equal to 3 percent of the compensation of the employee for the plan year. Plan N provides that each employee has a 100-percent nonforfeitable right to any nonelective contribution Employer H makes on behalf of the employee. Plan N is a topheavy plan with respect to the plan year. (B) Based on these facts, long-term, part-time employees are excluded from the application of the vesting and benefit requirements of section 416(b) and (c) for the plan year. Accordingly, although Plan N is a top-heavy plan with respect to the plan year, Plan N is not required to satisfy the top-heavy benefit provisions of section 416(c) for the plan year with respect to any nonkey employee who is a long-term, parttime employee. (g) Applicability date. This section applies to plan years that begin on or after January 1, 2024. Douglas W. O’Donnell, Deputy Commissioner for Services and Enforcement.
