[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 597982, member: 18044"] 700PPH, Dues are set by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters Constitution at two-and-a-half times your hourly rate. That is a minimum. Each Local is allowed to charge more, and many, including mine and yours, do. Your dues goes mostly to pay the salary and benefits of the officers and staff of the Local, and the cost of operating the Local and negotiating your Contract. Your benefits and wages are negotiated by the Union. UPS contributes money into your Health & Welfare fund as required by the Contract, but the money is really your money. It's part of your total compensation. Your dues is completely seperate from the H&W benefit. You don't (normally) pay anything for H&W coverage, but you will have to pay co-pays and deductibles as you use the benefit. The Health & Welfare Fund is located here . . .

That's Teamsters Care, not Teamster Scare.]:wink2: Click on Benefits Answerbooks and read the Summary Plan Description (SPD) for Active Members, especially the begining that explains about UPS part-timer eligibility and coverage. The New England Teamsters and Trucking Industry Pension Fund is here . . . [URL]http://www.nettipf.com[/URL] Several posters are from Local 25. They may have something to add. [/QUOTE]
