HEALTH & WELFARE 16:1 The parties signatory hereto shall enter into a Health and Welfare Plan for which there is a Trust Agreement, known as the Line Construction Benefit Fund, for the purpose of providing insurance benefits for eligible employees and/or their dependents. Effective the first of the month following the signature date of this Agreement, the Employer shall pay to the Line Construction Benefit Fund the sum of $6.50 for each hour worked. Hours worked shall be deemed to include straight-time hours worked, overtime hours worked, and report time not worked. Remittance shall be forwarded to the place designated by the parties hereto on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of each month for each hour worked in weekly payroll periods ending during the preceding month, together with a monthly payroll report on a form to be furnished to the Employer. It is understood and intended by the parties to this Agreement that the purpose of this clause is to establish an Employer financed Health and Welfare Trust and that contributions thereto shall not be deemed to be wages to which any employee shall have any right other than the right to have such contributions paid over to the Trust fund in accordance herewith. Failure of an individual Employer to make all payments provided for, including liquidated damages for late payments, within the time specified, shall be a breach of this Agreement and will further require action by the Trustees as set forth in the Trust Agreement. Any increase in the required contributions set forth above will be paid equally (50% by the Employer and 50% by the Employee). The amount paid by the Employee will come from their NEAP contribution. 16:2 HRA: Effective the first of the month following the signature date of this Agreement, the Employer also agrees to pay into the Line Construction Benefit Fund $1.00 per hour through the term of this Agreement.

Health and Welfare Fund Pursuant to provisions contained in a pre vious Collective Bargaining Agreement, there has been established a Health and Welfare Fund known as the “ Retail Meat Cutter Unions and Employers Joint Health and Welfare Fund For The Chicago Area” ; said Fund is hereinafter referred to as the “ Health and Welfare Fund.”
Pension Fund 1. The Employer shall make contributions to a pension trust fund known as the “Building Service 32BJ Pension Fund” to cover bargaining unit employees who are regularly employed twenty (20) or more hours per week, including paid time off. The Employer shall also make contributions on behalf of other bargaining unit employees to the extent that such employees work a sufficient number of hours to require benefit accrual pursuant to Section 204 of ERISA. Employees unable to work and who are on statutory short term disability benefits or workers’ compensation shall continue to accrue pension credits without employer contributions during the periods of disability up to six (6) months or the period of disability whichever is earlier. 2. The Employer shall pay into the Fund the sum of $94.75 per week for every regular employee as defined in the Building Service Pension Plan, as it may be amended, except as provided in Section 4 hereof. 3. Effective January 1, 2015, the Employer shall pay into the Fund the sum of $98.75 per week for every regular employee. 4. If the Employer has in effect a pension and retirement plan which has been determined to provide benefits equivalent or superior to those provided under the Building Service 32BJ Pension Plan, it may continue such plan provided it continues to provide retirement benefits equivalent or superior to the benefits that are provided under the Building Service 32BJ Pension Plan during the term of this agreement, and it shall be relieved of any obligation to make payments into the Fund. 5. Any Employer who becomes party to this Agreement and who immediately prior thereto has a pension plan in effect which provides benefits equivalent to or better than the benefits provided herein, may, upon agreement of the Union and RAB, cover his/her employees under its existing plan in lieu of this Fund and be relieved of the obligation to make contributions to the Fund for the period of such other coverage. 6. In no event shall the Trustees or any of them, the Union or the RAB, directly or indirectly, by reason of this agreement, be understood to consent to the extinguishment, change or diminution of any legal rights, vested or otherwise, that anyone may have in the continuation in existing form of any such Employer pension plan, and the Trustees or any of them, the Union and the RAB shall be held harmless by an Employer against any action brought by anyone covered under such Employer’s plan asserting a claim based upon anything done pursuant to Section 5 of this Article. Notice of the pendency of any such action shall be given the Employer who may defend the action on behalf of the indemnitee. 7. The parties agree that if there is new governmental regulations issued that implement the excise tax provisions of the Pension Protection Act (PPA), or there is further governmental reform relating to the funding of pension funds, the parties shall meet to discuss what steps, if any, might be appropriate to ameliorate any adverse impact on the Funds, its participants and employers. To the extent that any employer covered by this Agreement, with respect to employees covered by this Agreement, becomes subject to the automatic employer surcharge or any excise tax, penalty, fee, increased contribution rate or other amount relating to the funding of the Pension Fund (but not including interest, liquidated damages, or other amounts owed as a consequence of failing to make timely remittance of contributions to the Pension Fund) under Sections 412 or 432 of the Internal Revenue Code, then the parties agree that the required contributions to the Health Fund, Training Fund and/or Legal Services Fund for each employer covered under this Agreement shall be reduced dollar for dollar by the aggregate amount of any additional contribution and/or surcharge amounts, excise taxes, penalties, fees or other amounts that such employer is required to pay, as provided in this subsection. Unless a different allocation among the Funds is agreed upon in advance of any applicable due date for such contributions by the Presidents of the RAB and Local 32BJ, such amount shall be allocated solely from the Health Fund.
