Do retirees still get paid if there’s a strike?

[Round the block again]

So what happens if there is a strike next year, do retirees still get their pension or will it be on hold?

The only thing that a strike may affect is our Healthcare coverages.. I am under Team Care and they already stated that they will have a enough surplus saved to cover an authorized strike, for how long... who knows.

If a work stoppage is called you will not get any pension credits for that time off, same for the weekly contributions in most of the Pension and Health and Welfare plans...

Pension credits are sometimes retro in a settlement, don't remember what happened in 97

Retirees are no longer Teamsters . I don't know anyone retired that keeps paying dues unless they are working as
a Teamster at another company.

We will still receive our pension checks.

If you guys go out on strike I will come out and walk the picket line as long as someone brings some beer.

Yes they will, pension funds are legally separate entities that are not under the direct control of the union or company, but by appointed trustees who are obligated to follow federal pension laws

If someone brings a pole can you showoff your moves? Wait I'm sure no one really wants to see that.

I’m a proud retired TEAMSTER for life. Like the marines, there are no ex teamsters.

We continue to get paid. You think I'm coming down to support your picket line for nothing?

I don't know why we wouldn't get paid. Unless they want to add lawsuits to the bottom line along with grievances and the backpay.
