Actually I have contacted team care. My issue is whether I can receive retiree healthcare at 52. I am in the Atlantic supplement and have been told by the local union hall that I am not eligible to receive retiree health care till 55. I found this on the team care website. Which contradicts what I am being told.
If the above requirements are met, the individuals in (A), (B) and (C) below, will be eligible for this Plan effective on his/her 55th birthday:
(A) Full-time UPS Freight Covered Participants;
(B) Except as noted in (6) below, full-time UPS Package Covered Participants who were covered under TeamCare Active Plan U2 or by the UPS Central Region Supplement in Local Unions 0007, 0020, 0040, 0089, 0090, 0164, 0215, 0236, 0243, 0328, 0332, 0339, 0377, 0406, 0455, 0486, 0554, 0580, 0688, 0908, and 0957; and
(C) All UPS employees hired after August 1, 2013.
(6) If the requirements in (a)(1),(2) and (3) above are met, any member hired before August 1, 2013 who is a full-time UPS Package Covered Participant not covered by the UPS Central Region Supplement in Local Unions 0007, 0020, 0040, 0089, 0090, 0164, 0215, 0236, 0243, 0328, 0332, 0339, 0377, 0406, 0455, 0486, 0554, 0580, 0688, 0908, and 0957, will be eligible for this Plan effective on his/her 52nd birthday.
