George
Jotson, sole shareholder and chief executive officer of Orbital
Sprockets Incorporated, wanted to develop a qualified pension and
profit sharing plan for his 1,250 employees. Of the 1,250 employees,
only 30 employees earned over $100,000 in 2016. Jotson was concerned
with high turnover in the manufacturing plants and so he wanted to
restrict plan participation. Orbital’s qualified pension plan has
the following requirements:

·Minimum
plan entry age of 35.

·Minimum
plan waiting period of two years.

·Plan
vesting should be immediate

·Plan
participation should be limited to employees who earn over $100,000.

Rosa
Singleton, age 28, has been an employee of Orbital for the last 6
years. She earns $50,000 a year but wants to participate in the
pension plan. When she is told she does not qualify, she sues
Orbital.
