The union office has sent out a second round of renewal notices for NILICO benefits this week. If you have not already sent in your reply, please do so if you are interested in the program. Participation in this program is voluntary. If you have any questions, please feel free to call Dave Scalisi at 315-345-8425. This is a good time to make sure that if you have had a change of address to let the union office know.
Dustin Truesdell, an Apprentice Mechanic at BG was involved in a car accident a few weeks ago. This has resulted in an extended hospital stay. As you may know, Dustin has only been with NYPA since 2017 so he has not amassed a large amount of sick and vacation time. Members have reached out and we are awaiting approval from the PA to donate vacation days, much like we have done in the past for other members. Please consider donating a vacation day to a fellow member in need.
If you are confused about a medical bill or co-pay fees, members should seek out advice from NYPA HR before the bills are paid. The Union has addressed concerns about multiple co-pay fees quite a bit in the last few months and think it would be beneficial to have these questions answered prior to payment.
