Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Workers’ compensation commitments Our insurance carriers and certain state workers’ compensation programs require us to collateralize a portion of our workers’ compensation obligation, for which they become responsible should we become insolvent. The collateral typically takes the form of cash and cash equivalents, highly rated investment grade debt securities, letters of credit and/or surety bonds. On a regular basis these entities assess the amount of collateral they will require from us relative to our workers' compensation obligation. The majority of our collateral obligations are held in the Trust at the Bank of New York Mellon. We have provided our insurance carriers and certain states with commitments in the form and amounts listed below (in thousands):
| September 26, 2014 |  | December 27, 2013
Cash collateral held by insurance carriers | $ | 22,643 |  |  | $ | 23,747 |
Cash and cash equivalents held in Trust (1) | 25,806 |  |  | 31,474 |
Investments held in Trust | 92,699 |  |  | 86,678 |
Letters of credit (2) | 22,573 |  |  | 7,867 |
Surety bonds (3) | 15,742 |  |  | 16,099 |
Total collateral commitments | $ | 179,463 |  |  | $ | 165,865 |
(1) | Included in this amount is $0.9 million and $0.8 million of accrued interest at September 26, 2014 and December 27, 2013, respectively.
(2) | We have agreements with certain financial institutions to issue letters of credit as collateral. We had $1.9 million of restricted cash collateralizing our letters of credit at September 26, 2014 and December 27, 2013, respectively.
(3) | Our surety bonds are issued by independent insurance companies on our behalf and bear annual fees based on a percentage of the bond, which is determined by each independent surety carrier. These fees do not exceed 2.0% of the bond amount, subject to a minimum charge. The terms of these bonds are subject to review and renewal every one to four years and most bonds can be canceled by the sureties with as little as 60 days notice.
Legal contingencies and developments We are involved in various proceedings arising in the normal course of conducting business. We believe the amounts provided in our financial statements are adequate in consideration of the probable and estimable liabilities. The resolution of those proceedings is not expected to have a material effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
