Personnel moving from part-time to full-time employment are required to join the Municipal Superannuation Plan when their trial period has been completed. Personnel moving from full-time to part-time employment who are contributors to the Municipal Superannuation Plan are required to continue on the plan. Personnel changing positions involving the change from full-time to part-time employment will not be taken off such benefits as Group Life, M.S.A., Dental Plan, for thirty working days. The Dental Scheme has the following special provisions: - For this contract period, the coverage is - 100% of Plan "A" - Basic Benefits 70% of Plan "B" - New Dentures, etc. 70% of Plan "C" - Orthodontics (children) - Only employees whose appointment is half-time or more can be eligible, casual and temporary employees cannot be admitted. - Ten month type appointments will need June deductions additionally covering July and August in any year. - Persons may claim common-law agreements dependent coverage, provided these dependents are also being claimed under such other benefits as Medical, etc. - For additional information of coverages, etc. see M.S.A. pamphlet. - The Extended Health Plan will provide a provision for eye glass coverage to a maximum of $300 every two (2) years (effective March 1, 2001). A District voluntary Group Registered Retirement Savings Plan is available. Application forms are available from our Payroll Department. The plan carrier is Mutual Life of Canada. It is the sole responsibility of the individual employee to ensure the appropriateness of the plan for their purposes and to establish whether or not the investment vehicle of their choice is guaranteed. See Mutual Life locally for any desired investment changes. The principal advantage of a Group R.R.S.P. is that you will receive immediate tax relief on your contributions rather than having to wait until you file your annual tax return. This plan is not an appropriate method for employees to save money for the summer. In addition to contributions made by payroll deduction, lump sum contributions can be made at any time, directly to the plan carrier and not through our Payroll Department. The minimum contribution level is $50.00 per month. Employees may join by obtaining and completing an application form and returning same to Payroll as soon as possible but not later than the 20th of each month. Employees can withdraw from the plan at any time subject to payroll receiving notification, in writing, one week prior to the effective pay day.
