Funny thing happened yesterday. Looked up the W. Penna. MPRA application, ABF is not listed as a contributing employer. Canary, I thought you worked for ABF, could you shed some light on this apparent inconsistency.
I like your new avatar......
Prior to my retirement,....As a Steward,I was a very vocal advocate for ABF to provide the monthly receipts for both the H & W, and Pension funds,...so I could post them in the Union bulletin board. Butted heads several times with ABF Labor man, and ABF's ........let's say: "inconsistency".....in providing the receipts on a regular basis. (...there was a short time several years ago,....where the receipts weren't as "forthcoming" as they should've been..)....
When I retired , and gave up my Steward position,....I turned over 16 years of monthly reports of Pension and H & W payments,......along with all Grievances and discussion notes....to the succeeding Steward...
(....and an aside to the ABF management who monitor these boards,.....I was a voluminous note-taker. All this is documented...)....
As far as I know,...the current Steward is still getting the monthly receipts from both Funds,...and posting them, as per contractual language..( Article 48, 3rd paragraph, of the JC #40 Supplemental Agreement..)
I believe,...if ArcBest/ABF is still providing receipts,.....then they are ...contributing,...to the Western Pennsylvania Teamsters and Employers Pension Fund......
However,...sometime today, I will call the Pension Fund and confirm their status,.....just to set both of our minds at ease......
