Employee Benefit Plans And Deferred Compensation EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION
Defined Contribution Plan
We have 401(k) plans for the benefit of employees who meet certain eligibility requirements. The plans provide for company match, specified company contributions and discretionary company contributions. For the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, we contributed $28.0 million, $17.3 million, and $13.2 million to the 401(k) plans, respectively. Outside the U.S., we have a number of defined contribution pension plans and other employee benefit plans. For the years ended September 30, 2022, 2021, and 2020, we contributed $23.7 million, $22.8 million, and $18.6 million to these plans, respectively.
Deferred Compensation Plan
We also have a deferred compensation plan, which is a non-qualified plan available to a restricted number of highly compensated employees. The plan enables participants to defer compensation for tax purposes. These deferred employee contributions are held within a Rabbi Trust with investments directed by the respective employees. The assets of the Rabbi Trust are available to satisfy the claims of general creditors in the event of bankruptcy. The assets of the plan are sufficient to meet 86% of the liabilities as of September 30, 2022. The assets within the Rabbi Trust include $22.8 million invested in mutual funds that have quoted prices in active markets. These assets, as well as the related employee liabilities, are recorded at fair value, with changes in fair value being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.
