Sec. 353a.
Any employer who promises in writing to make payments to an employee welfare plan,
vacation plan, health plan, dental plan, insurance plan, supplemental unemployment benefit
plan, profit sharing plan, pension plan or any employee welfare plan, either by contract with
an individual employee, by a collective bargaining agreement or by agreement with such
employee plan, and who fails to make such payments within 3 weeks after they become due
and payable, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. This section shall not apply where the failure to
make payments is prevented by act of God, proceedings in bankruptcy, orders or processes of
any court of competent jurisdiction or circumstances over which the employer has no control.
Conviction for violation of this section does not relieve the employer of liability for moneys
under such agreement or contract.
