CWA Local 4202

HEALTHCARE

The current Healthcare plan with AT&T Mobility expires in June 2008.  Your current coverage remains in affect until December 31, 2008.  Negotiations for the next Healthcare contract will begin somewhere around May/June 2008.

Good and affordable Healthcare is vial to all of our members.  You need to have something that you can afford.  Local 4202 is aware of what AT&T Mobility offered to its own Management for Healthcare this year, and it isn't pretty.  Higher premiums, extremely higher deductibles and co-pays for prescriptions.  It is reasonable to assume they will not offer its "non-management" employees anything better!

Healthcare for our members is a proactive way to stay healthy.  Staying healthy means you can show up for work.  Showing up for work means you help to increase the company's revune and profits, which by the way for 2007 far exceeded the company's own goals.

For the company to now turn around and cry broke and that they cannot afford to cover their employees at the same level they have for the last six years is mind boggling at least.  CWA negotiated your current Healthcare benefits.

Local 4202 wants our members to be involved and your input is vital to our ability to be effective in our upcoming Healthcare negotiations.

Local 4202 looking for our members to get involved during these negotiations. CWA Local 4202 needs members who are willing to contact other members and educate each other.  CWA Local 4202 needs the support of every member to win this battle!
