FRINGE BENEFIT COVERAGE. It is the intention of the parties that employees covered by this Agreement shall be treated in the same way as similarly situated unrepresented staff employees other than those who are managerial, supervisory, or confidential with respect to fringe benefits. Accordingly, the UNIVERSITY will make available to employees covered by this Agreement fringe benefits (retirement, health insurance, life insurance, dental insurance and non-industrial disability insurance) on the same basis and to the same extent as such fringe benefits are provided to unrepresented staff employees other than those who are managerial, supervisory, or confidential. If during the term of this Agreement the UNIVERSITY changes fringe benefits or Workers' Compensation or Unemployment Insurance as they apply to other staff employees described above, such changes will apply to employees covered by this Agreement. The UNION will be notified of any such changes before they are implemented by the UNIVERSITY.
