[QUOTE="Channahon, post: 471163, member: 7666"] Why go throught the expense of printing leaflets, why not just hand out the letter written by Local 705? We have seen the letter by the Local and UPS, does anyone have access to the plan itself? Based on the letter by UPS: The average annual cost per participant in the UPS Health & Weifare Package for Retired Employees has exceeded $6,250. [B]Under the terms of the Plan, each retired employee will be required to share equally in the cost above the $6,250 maximum[/B] by making an additional contribution.This additional contribution is effective February 1,2009. The [U][I]key issue[/I][/U] is what is written into the benefits plan and was agreed upon by UPS and the Teamsters. I'm not sure the public and our customers will be very sympathetic to this issue, based on the economy and massive layoffs, so what exactly is the point of passing out leaflets? To have customers divert their packages to other carriers, as a sign of support? [/QUOTE]
