- The Clorox Company Voluntary Employees Beneficiary Association ("VEBA Trust") was established for the purpose of providing security to active employees by holding employer funds contributed by Clorox and its subsidiaries and by employees for the payment of medical, dental, and vision benefits. On January 1, 2002, the trust agreement dated September 28, 2000 between The Clorox Company and Union Bank of California, N.A. (Trustee) was amended to add The Clorox Company Group Insurance Plan for Certain Retired and Disabled Participants (Plan No. 508) to the trust. On June 24, 2008, the VEBA Trust Agreement was amended to remove the current eligible employees from the VEBA Trust. Effective July 1, 2008 active employee contributions are no longer held in the VEBA Trust and certain benefits and expenses for the active employees are paid through the general assets of the Clorox Company. Effective July 1, 2018, The Clorox Company Group Insurance Plan for Retirees was established to provide benefits for eligible former employees of The Clorox Company.
