[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1139135, member: 43436"] Hoffa & Hall never guaranteed that the level of benefits would be the same, just that we would not pay for the benefits. And they delivered on that promise. When the deductible peaks, the additional costs will incur the average Teamster a few hundred dollars -- very minimal, considering the rate at which health care has risen/continues to rise, and still significantly better than the previous (to 2008) company-controlled benefits. Instead of whining and crying about minimal cost, focus your energy on additional wage hikes. As I've mentioned before, a 20c annual catch up raise for PTers would equate into an additional $3500 (based on a 20-hour work week) over the life of the contract -- several times the additional costs of health care.
