Unemployment Compensation
The Piper pays a percentage of its payroll to the Unemployment Compensation Fund according to The Piper's employment history. If you become unemployed, you may be eligible for unemployment compensation, under certain conditions, for a limited period of time. Associates, who quit or are discharged for misconduct in connection with their work, may not be eligible to receive unemployment compensation benefits.
Social Security
The United States Government operates a system of contributory insurance known as Social Security. As a wage earner, you are required by law to contribute a set amount of your weekly wages to the trust fund from which benefits are paid. As your employer, The Piper is required to deduct this amount from each paycheck you receive. In addition, The Piper matches your contribution dollar for dollar, thereby paying one-half of the cost of your Social Security benefits.
