I agree with the above statement how it seems to contradict with document provisions, however I would love for support/documentation on this. I am not able to find specific language on not being able carve out those employees who have never worked 1,000 hours in a plan year when elapsed time is used for eligibility purposes. My understanding is that you can only disaggregate based on age and period of service when elapsed time is used, meaning hours would not come into play at all. But again would love support/documentation on this to make sure I am understanding correctly.
