i got this from a twu steward who has had a huge interest in insurance. the figures he got he believes are from the assoc., pointing out the disparity last year or 2018 and it was posted on union bulletin boards.
this was when the assoc. was telling us they were fighting for all on lus insurance and just how outrageously expensive the laa insurance was in comparison.
i believe most have an idea of the numbers, some were shocked at the gravity of the disparity and unfairness.
single, middle (core) insurance plan:
laa $1.07/hr cost, $186.68 per month
lus $0.18/hr cost, $31.49 per month
family, middle (core) insurance plan:
laa $3.76/hr cost, $653.38 per month
lus $0.61/hr cost, $106.49 per month
when he told me a lus bag agent with 30 years on a family plan will be $30,000+ richer ($500+ a month x 60 months) over 5 years than a laa FSC with 30 years on a family plan - thanks to sito's deceit and garcia's malfeasance..i didn't believe him until he pulled the numbers.
this isn't even counting the disparity favoring lus with insurance numbers from 2014-now, the holidays/holiday pay rates/sk days.
as mentioned, i will vote no.
