Pension

[BigUnionGuy]

Although I have always been told the company is allowed to move these jobs around the country where they deem They are necessary.

The jobs have always been moved around, usually to areas with high turnover in the PT ranks.

As long as the number of jobs are not diminished.... it's not a contact violation.

That’s a lot.

With low future contributions thanks to our lopsided aggrement.

What is this thread about ? is west losing pension money myths? View attachment 441978

The above unfortunately combines unrelated facts.

@542thruNthru ,
How can the West be getting 13-14 dollars an hour when the contribution negotiated is only .50 a hour- $20 a week? That is the gross figure, the actual pension amount is only what is left over after the medical is paid.

That would be a 50 cent increase in contributions, I would assume.

that 7500 is volume dependent

Thank you, genius, we all know how honest UPS is with volume numbers remember the 10,000 jobs from 1997, the arbitrator said UPS is a big fat liar.

How many hours a Year do you have to work to accrue your pension for that year

Local 344. Technically could be done in 45 minutes. One punch a week.

How many hours a Year do you have to work to accrue your pension for that year

500 hours in the western conference for a service credit

No wonder they get 8K a month pension. Lol

Lazy bastdids don’t even have to work

Lol, if you only worked 500 hours here, your pension would only go up around $75/mo.

 

[Cheesypurpletees]

500 hours just earns western teamsters a vested credit.
Based on the formula, 500 hours of service for the year would only accrue around $80 a month of pension benefits. Whereas working the full 2080 hours, is currently around $320-$330 a month

But I agree, the western teamsters pension is very generous

The contribution did not increase over current levels, maybe I missing something?

You may be onto something, but do you know if any other supplements even asked for such language? And be honest here, there has always been things each supplement wanted that another had. Admittedly this is a little bogus, but have we ever seen 7500 full time job creations before?

What’s the story about the 22k other full time jobs???

My God. You don't know jack about what's going on, do you?

It’s just additional frosting man, the main cake with all its gooey filling is still there

You are. The contributions previously negotiated in their supplement, my supplement, yours or any other will still be paid. Not taken out. Now stop with this.

Projected to be an additional $1500 per month, over and above current levels for those bitching about contribution increases, by the end of the contract.

Seems like one helluva pension increase to me. $1500 more per month in 5 years.
