Apprentices earn college credits toward an associate's degree in carpentry. Carpenters Apprenticeship and Training Fund currently has three Training Facilities in Pennsylvania and two New Jersey.

As a union employee, Laufenberg earned $300,000.

George R. Laufenberg, a former administrative manager of the union's pension fund, was indicted on charges of embezzling union funds. Laufenberg, who is accused of illegally transferring union money into his own paycheck without approval from the trustees, is facing five years imprisonment and a $250,000 penalty.


Laufenberg, an ex-Port Authority of New York commissioner, was accused of embezzling nearly $1.5million in pension funds, deferred payment payments and excess nuity contributions. His authority was also used to pay his friend his full salary and deferred payments that he received through his union. Laufenberg was fired from the union in late 2016. He resigned in the early 2017 from his post on the Port Authority Board. The charges stemmed from the fact that he misused his union power to steal from the benefit plans of his employees. Laufenberg claimed that he had adhered to union rules and placed his friend onto the union payroll, even though he knew it was part-time.

Laufenberg is alleged to have used his authority in order to pay a friend a full-time salary, with annuity and pension contributions

Chris Christie, a former governor, appointed Laufenberg to be the Port Authority of NY & NJ. He allegedly stole benefits plans money and diverted funds into his own personal accounts. He also allegedly filed false federal taxes and diverted his annuity contributions to himself. Laufenberg, who allegedly stole more than $120,000 in retirement benefits and deferred pay, gave his friend and colleagues full salaries without notice or approval.

When Laufenberg began receiving his benefits, he was earning a salary of $300,000. He also received $180,000 annually in deferred compensation. His actions allegedly included allowing a friend the full salary plus pension and annuity contribution and to benefit from the union’s medical plan. Laufenberg is facing a maximum penalty up to five years in prison as well as a $250,000.00 fine. Laufenberg's lawyer did not immediately return a call asking for comment about the allegations against him.

Laufenberg admitted that he made false statements on a form required by ERISA

Laufenberg was the administrator for the Northeast Carpenters Pension Fund. This fund was governed under the Employee Retirement Income Security act. He confessed to taking $140,000 from the pension fund. Laufenberg also admitted that he made false statements on ERISA forms. The penalty for violating ERISA can range from fines to imprisonment.

The ERISA Act allows for criminal charges if the individual knowingly made a materially false statement in a plan document or omitted to produce necessary documentation. A Section 1027 violation can result in a five-year jail sentence, or a fine up to $55,000 and a minimum of ten years imprisonment. A conviction under ERISA is harsh. However, it is possible for a defendant to avoid lengthy-term imprisonment if he or she can prove that the statements were not misleading or fraudulent. Law recognizes that human mistakes are common and that a person can avoid long-term imprisonment by proving that they did not make a mistake.




FAQ

What is a "service contract agreement"?

An agreement between two parties for the provision of services is called a Service Contract Agreement (SCA). The SCA specifies the services to be provided, their cost, time and effort required, who will pay for them, and when they should start. The agreement also specifies what happens to the other party if they breach their obligations.


Who creates a Service Agreement

You and your customer will agree on how you will provide services. This agreement outlines your customer's responsibilities and what you must do for them. It also explains when you have to pay them.

You will be informed in the service agreement if any additional fees apply for services that are not included.

A service agreement should include all the terms and conditions that apply to the contract. This includes payment methods, delivery times, warranties, etc.
