A True Friend of Labor
TWU Local 200 would like to introduce its members to American Income Life Insurance Company (AIL). Established and growing since 1951, its dedication to working people has made it the largest provider of supplemental insurance in the United States. It has earned the respect of Unions nationwide because it is a 100% wall-to-wall Union Label insurance company.
A letter will be sent out this month to all members of Local 200 informing them of our Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) coverage provided to our members at ‘No Cost’ by AIL. Included with this letter will be an enrollment card and we ask that each member and retiree fill out and mail back the postage-paid card within ten days in order to receive the “No Cost” benefits.
NOTE: These supplemental benefits do not conflict with or replace any benefits currently provided by Local 200, but are offered in addition to them.
The AD&D coverage is automatic for all members and retirees, however, you must return the yellow enrollment card to receive your AD&D Policy and designate your beneficiary, as well as, receive information about other programs and services.
Here are some of the many reasons why AIL is the Insurance Company of choice for Unions:
1. It supports the union movement both in deeds and words. AIL contributed $100,000 to help defeat Proposition 226 in California.
2. Premiums are waived for members holding AIL policies while the insured member is on an authorized strike. Those members never have to pay those premiums back. AIL is the only insurance company with strike waiver.
3. AIL maintains a food bank for union families in need.
4. AIL representatives are active in union activities. They promote a “Be Union – Buy Union” philosophy and have been cited as an all-Union Company by the AFL-CIO Union Label and Service Trades Department.
5. AIL is very active in voter registration drives with Local Unions.
6. AIL supports pro-labor candidates and legislation.
7. AIL provides scholarships, strike relief and supports many worthwhile pro-union community causes.
American Income Life looks forward to working with the membership of Local 200 while giving them a union choice for their insurance needs. For any additional information please contact Mark Gagliardi, our representative at American Income Life, at (925) 698-0719. Do not call the Union office. |
