Postemployment Benefits [Abstract] |
Employee Benefit Plans | 7. Employee Benefit Plans Defined Contribution Retirement Savings Plan The Company has a defined contribution retirement savings plan with a 401(k) feature for all eligible U.S. and Canadian employees not under collective bargaining agreements. The Company matches a portion of the employee’s contribution and may make an additional contribution at its discretion. Contributions charged to expense under the plan for the thirteen weeks ended May 27, 2023 and May 28, 2022 were $4.4 million and $4.7 million, respectively. Contributions charged to expense under the plan for the thirty-nine weeks ended May 27, 2023 and May 28, 2022 were $14.3 million and $14.2 million, respectively. Pension Plans and Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans The Company maintains an unfunded Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for certain eligible employees of the Company and one frozen non-contributory defined benefit pension plan. The amounts charged to expense related to these plans for the thirteen weeks ended May 27, 2023 and May 28, 2022 were $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The amounts charged to expense related to these plans for the thirty-nine weeks ended May 27, 2023 and May 28, 2022 were $1.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan The Company adopted the UniFirst Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (the “NQDC Plan”) effective on February 1, 2022. The NQDC Plan is an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation plan that allows eligible participants to voluntarily defer receipt of their salary and annual cash bonuses up to approved limits. In its discretion, the Company may credit one or more additional contributions to participant accounts. NQDC Plan participants who are not accruing benefits under the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan are eligible to have discretionary annual employer contributions credited to their NQDC Plan accounts. All participants are also eligible to have employer supplemental contributions and employer discretionary contributions credited to their NQDC Plan accounts. The amounts of such contributions, if any, may differ from year to year and from participant to participant. The amounts for employee or employer contributions charged to expense related to the NQDC Plan for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended May 27, 2023 were $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. There were no employee or employer contributions charged to expenses related to the NQDC Plan for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended May 28, 2022. The Company, at its discretion, may also elect to transfer funds to a trust account with the intention to fund the future liability. Total NQDC Plan assets were $1.9 million and $1.3 million as of May 27, 2023 and August 27, 2022, respectively, and are included within other long-term assets on the balance sheet.
