Employers Still Refuse to Adequately Fund Health Benefits Plan

May 30, 2007

Albertsons, Ralphs, and Vons continue to refuse to adequately fund your health benefits plan.  Under their current proposal, the employers would save hundreds of millions of dollars while they expect our members' portion to significantly increase.  Their proposal could also put your Health Benefits Fund in grave danger in the third year of the contract.  That could force co-pays to go up and benefits to be reduced.  This is totally unacceptable! 

We are turning up the heat on the employers.  It's the only thing that they understand.  You need to get involved in your contract fight.  Contact your Union Representative to see how to help.
