Not sure about other regions, but here in the Southern Region, casuals have their pension paid for by the company. The current rate of contribution is $68.40 per day worked. Takes 180-days worked in a calendar year to get a full years credit and 5-full year credits to be vested.
So if you are working an average of 15 days a month or more (January-December), you will get in the 180-days required for a full years credit. I think you still get a half years vesting credit for anything over 90-days in a calendar year, but I would have to check with our Local to confirm this.
Here in the Southern Region, they do not pay Health&Welfare on part-time.
Only full-time.
The western conference pays health & welfare for casuals. Saw many dock casuals that had full time day jobs work at night just for the medical insurance.
