Additional Health Care Coverage
The Collective Bargaining Agreement between your employer and UFCW District Union Local One may include the option of applying for major medical/hospitalization coverage through Local One once you have completed the appropriate probation period. An application is available upon request.
We will mail you an application which requires you to list any other possible source of medical coverage. If you meet the requirements, you may be entitled to the additional coverage.
Depending on your date of hire, either your employer will pay for this coverage in full or you may have a small weekly co-pay.
