[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 1083391, member: 4886"] None of us are happy that health care costs are going up. I'm not happy I pay 650/month between my copay and my HCSA for my health care for a family. I've been paying way more for health care then you for years and I'm a current employee. I'm doing my Taxes now, and my w2 shows that UPS paid $15,832 for my HW, not even counting what I pay for health care of $650/month. That's my 7800 plus the $15,832 UPS paid for me and thats a total $23,632 for the cost of my health care costs. That was last year. You paid 50/month or $600 total. You should be happy how low it was for as long as it was. However, going back to what you first said.. You said you were promised $50/month for HW. Can you answer the questions I asked? Who said it, do you have it in writing. One last thing, the HW costs etc are negotiated in the contract. Just like anything there are dates in the contract for start\end dates etc. I see the changes happening for HW making sense it occurs on a new contract ratification date. If the union does negotiate a lower cost for you, that means UPS will pay more then what is currently being planned, which means somewhere that money has to be made up. Lower raises, less HW and pension for current teamsters, possibly a split rate for new teamsters. It's got to come from somewhere. [/QUOTE]
