[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 214773"] Cole, Supposedly, this contract language (below) gives the negotiators the right to take the combined pension and health & welfare raises and split the money up between the two funds any way they want. I originally thought they had to decide before we voted on the contract, but they are claiming they can redirect the raises any time they want. They have been doing it in Central States for three years already. The language below isn't crystal clear. And they themselves get to resolve any disputes! ARTICLE 34. HEALTH & WELFARE AND PENSION "(a). . . Where the employees are covered by both Teamster Health & Welfare and Pension Funds in a Supplement, Rider or Addendum, the weekly health & welfare and pension contributions shall be allocated by the respective Joint Supplemental Area Negotiating Committees, subject to the approval of the Joint National Negotiating Committee. . . ." ". . . The increases accrued under this Article on August 1st of each year can only be allocated to health & welfare and/or pension. Any dispute concerning the allocation of health & welfare and pension money shall be determined and/or resolved by the Joint National Negotiating Committee. . . ."
