What it is and who needs it.
What the fund fidelity bond covers
The Idaho Plumbers and Pipefitters Pension Plan Trust is an employee benefit plan administered for plumber and pipefitter union members in Idaho. Federal law — ERISA §412, 29 U.S.C. §1112 — requires every plan official who handles funds or other property of the plan to be covered by a fidelity bond, unless a narrow statutory exemption applies.
The bond protects the plan against loss from fraud or dishonesty by a bonded person — theft, embezzlement, forgery, misappropriation, and similar acts — not against ordinary investment loss or a bad business decision. Federal law generally sets the floor at 10% of the funds handled in the preceding plan year, with a $1,000 statutory minimum per plan official and typically a $500,000 cap per plan; this specific filing is fixed at $5,000.
It is not insurance for you — it protects the plan's participants and beneficiaries from a dishonest act by someone with access to plan money. If a claim is paid, the bonded person is liable to reimburse the surety. Confirm the exact amount your role requires with the fund's trustees or plan administrator before you apply; we issue this specific $5,000 filing.
