[QUOTE="705red, post: 468718, member: 5229"] Like sleeve said benefits now take 1 year. One of the major reasons that it was changed was because people would get hired on at ups for the benefits and have all of their medical needs taken care of. Ups had charted out how many people within the first few months had hip replacements, transplants, knee surgeries, back surgeries etc. These few people with all of their major medical bills had raised ups's medical premiums through the roof. Ups even showed how many of these employees left after all of their medical needs were taken care of. Here a withdrawl card is only good for your union dues. Our medical is through ups and if we leave the company we would start over as a new employee, but would not have to pay the initiation fees to the union again. I know it is different in other areas seeing that the teamsters offer medical for ups employees in other areas. [/QUOTE]
