[QUOTE="InsideUPS, post: 1120539, member: 31414"] Evil, I sincerely appreciate your efforts in looking out for UPS retirees and those that are about to retire such as myself. With that said, please know that $200/month is not unreasonable (IMHO) for a retiree to pay for a good retirement health insurance plan. All of this depends on the "details" of the plan such as deductibles, copays, scope of coverage, etc.. Currently in our Local, the FT retiree health coverage is $257/month for man/wife coverage. In our Local, all the FT employees are covered by a locally administered major hospital plan. The BA is the sole individual responsible for negotiating this health care coverage. Regardless, the language in our CURRENT National Contract (page 82) states the following: [COLOR=#1a1a18][SIZE=3](6) The retired part-time employee will be required to make a contribution equal to the amount required by a retired full-time employee in the same Local Union. [B][U]If there is no established rate the contribution will be two hundred dollars ($200.00) per month.[/U][/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] [SIZE=3][/SIZE][COLOR=#1a1a18][SIZE=3] [/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
