Benefit Overview

Please refer to Article VII - Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association Benefit (VEBA) in the Health & Welfare SPD for complete information regarding eligibility and forfeiture rules.

Working in Local 38 jurisdiction: $0.50 per Hour Paid funded through Employer pretax contributions (subject to applicable Collective Bargaining Agreements) which may be used for eligible medical expenses or insurance self-payment.

Working outside Local 38 jurisdiction:  If the H&W rate being reciprocated is lower than Local 38's H&W rate minus the HRA contribution amount; the member will not receive the HRA contribution. It is very important to be familiar with other Locals benefits and rates that will be reciprocated back to Local 38.
