[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 2949435, member: 42554"] Read Article 1, section 2 of the National Master. Retirees are not included in the employees covered. Read Article 2, section 1- again Retirees are not included. Your preamble or first two articles of your Regional agreement will also not mention retirees. In the WCT, under Article 30 (2)(b),(c),and (d) it discusses how healthcare coverage will be handled for retirees prior to 1/1/14 and on or after 1/1/14. That is the only place retirees has ever been mentioned in any contract I have read. The SW Package and Sort rider also does not mention retirees except in Section 25 Health Insurance Coverage- which mirrors the WCT language. UPS did take care of retirees for many years, but now they are not willing to shoulder the liability for either current employees or retirees. They'd rather just cut a check and let us fend for ourselves. Anything can happen in the next contract, anything but HC going back to the way it was before 2013. I don't know how you tell current employees to forego a wage increase to shorten a progression or increase the starting wage for someone who may never be hired. The minimum wage outpaces our starting wage in many States so that is forcing them to pay more regardless. I don't see progression being reduced either unless the Company decides that a shorter path to $90-100K is better than their retarded Integrad failure. [/QUOTE]
