An important note about reaching the "ceiling" on a project

• When you are paid for work on a project, the project’s producer has an obligation to contribute funds to the SAG-AFTRA Pension and Health Plans based on them.
• However, there is a “cap” to that obligation, which is determined by the “ceiling” for each project which is indicated in the SAG-AFTRA agreements.   
• Once those ceilings have been met, the producer is no longer obligated to pay contributions to the Plans, and the earnings you received won’t be reported.
• This is why you might notice your earnings with the SAG-AFTRA Health Plan do not always match your personal records or your SAG Union dues statement.
• Please see the Covered Earnings page on our website for more information about common ceiling thresholds by production type.
• You can always contact the production’s payor to inquire if you have met the ceiling on a project.
