[QUOTE="preload35, post: 92597, member: 5206"] My husband was in the same position in 1987 when the Clerks were taken into the Union. He had 17+ years at UPS. At that time it was as if he was a "new hire". His UPS Retirement benefit was frozen at the 1987 rates, $30 for each year of employment about $500 which he will receive at retirement age apart from the Union Pension. There are some reciprocal agreements that recognize years of service as a whole and pay according to years in each plan, but there is no reciprocal for the clerks. You can call your local and you may be able to get clarification, or you may not. We tried for 10 years to get answers. You can't get a straight answer out of either UPS or Teamsters, because frankly they don't know. I had to read my Teamster and UPS benefit books up and down. There is a lot of conflicting information. His Seniority, Vacation Time, Sick Days, Personal Holidays all remained the same. The only change was his health benefits and of course his Union retirement time began. If I'm not mistaken he was automatically vested in the Union plan because of his previous service. We are in Local 391 in NC. Hope this may be of some help. [/QUOTE]
