Outcome

The Washington Supreme Court affirmed that employer contributions to retirement trust funds, apprenticeship training trust funds, LECET, and life insurance and disability insurance trust funds do not constitute 'wages' under RCW 51.08.178(1) and therefore should be excluded from time-loss compensation calculations.
