Dues receipts are now sent by email only. If you do not have a personal email address, it could be the address for anyone in your household that would give you the information (ex: your spouse or child). Just send an email to Kay (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) and your email address is saved. Only takes a few seconds…it’s that simple…no cost for postage or a phone call!!
TEXT MESSAGE COMMUNICATIONS
As a Local 52 member, you are opted-in to receive official correspondence in any form. We will communicate directly using SMS Text Messaging by sending one-way short messages. These messages will be used to quickly communicate important information such as recent death assessments, union meetings, etc. Any member that DOES NOT want to participate in receiving SMS text messages will need to contact the office to OPT-OUT.
Had any life changes lately?
Marriage, divorce or new baby? If so, you may need to change your beneficiary. It is very important for you to keep your beneficiaries up-to-date. A deceased Member without a current beneficiary on file causes extra expense for the Local and hardship on the families left behind. Beneficiaries should be updated periodically. The Local should have a form on file for for each member on the following benefits:
- Local 52 Death Assessment/ UA Burial Benefit form – ALL members.
- Life Insurance form - Only members currently covered under health insurance and retired members covered under life insurance only.
- Pension Plan – Members who are Vested in the defined contribution plan and receiving a quarterly statement from Charles Schwab. If you are married, the Annuity Waiver/Consent Form must be signed and notarized. Please read the Explanation carefully.
- National Pension Fund- contact the Fund at 1-800-638-7442 to receive forms.
Forms are available under Documents/Members.
