Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Cost (Reversal of Cost) [Abstract] |
Pension And Other Postretirement Benefits | Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits We provide defined contribution plans and noncontributory defined benefit retirement plans that cover certain of our employees. Benefits under the defined benefit retirement plans reflect the employees’ compensation, years of service and age at retirement. Additionally, we provide health care and life insurance benefits for certain retired employees. The majority of employees may become eligible for these benefits if they reach retirement age while working for us. The expected cost of such benefits is accrued during the employees’ years of service. For most plans, cash contributions are remitted to grantor trusts. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we contributed $0.8 million to our pension plans and $6.3 million to our other postretirement benefit plans. The following table provides the components of the plans’ actuarially determined net periodic benefit cost for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:
