Amendments to the Savings and Security Plan

For those age 50 or older to make additional tax-deferred contributions into your 401k plan above the current maximums allowed under the plan.
(4-2002)

If you are hired after the 15th of the month then your 6 month increase should take effect 6 months after your start rate NOT the 1st of the following month. For example, start date is November 20, 2000. Six month increase would be May 20, 2001 and not June 1, 2001. Somehow Payroll was under a "misunderstanding".

ATTENTION NEW EMPLOYEES......

If you are denied wage credit at the start of your employment, ask your Chief Steward to review the Wage Credit Guidelines. You may qualify for wage credit and not know it.

If you are brought into a discussion regarding your attendance, make sure you have union representation with you.

If you are having problems in the class, see your Chief Steward.

You DON'T come into work on your own time to do work. Nor do  you work through your lunch or break to "catch up". And you definitely don't take work home with you!

Your union dues are 1.3% of your basic wage rate and are deducted automatically from your paycheck on a weekly basis. If you choose to become a non-member/Agency Fee Payer, should you change your mind at a later date and request membership, you would be required to pay a $50.00 initiation fee. (Per Bylaws)
