Changes In Coverage |
|
Plan coverage for you and your dependents continues
as long as you remain an active, full-time employee, in accordance with your
collective bargaining agreement. If you
become a part-time employee, you may be eligible for a different plan of
benefits under the Fund. If you
terminate your employment, retire or become disabled, your coverage under the
Plan ends. Your coverage will also end
if your participating employer does not pay the required contributions to the
Fund. If You Terminate Employment If your employment terminates or you retire, your coverage ends on the last day of the month in which your employment terminates or you retire. If you take an authorized leave of absence or are laid off, you lose coverage at the end of the period for which your participating employer pays the required contribution on your behalf. If You Become Disabled If you are unable to work because of a disability, your coverage under the Fund continues while you are disabled for up to six calendar months beginning with the first month following your last day of work. If you are still not working at the end of the six-month period and you are still disabled, you must contact the Fund office. . |
