Employee and Employer Contributions
The Sherer Dental Laboratory, Inc.. Employee Savings & Profit Sharing Plan likely includes both employee deferral contributions (similar to a 401(k)) and employer profit-sharing contributions. When dividing the account, your QDRO must clearly state whether both types of contributions are included or if only a specific portion is subject to division.
For example, your settlement might state that the alternate payee (typically the non-employee spouse) is entitled to 50% of the marital portion of all vested assets. If so, the order should cover both employee and employer contributions accrued during the marriage—unless specifically excluded in the settlement.
