Local 888 knows how hard our members work and how hard the economy is out there. Therefore, Local 888 knows how important cost saving is. I mean, who doesn’t want to save money here and there? With this in mind, Local 888 launched the Union Plus Benefits program in which our members can save hundreds of dollars on every day purchases.
Union Plus not only provides discounts on unique products and services but the program also believes that supporting union members through good and bad times keeps our unions strong, therefore, they offer unique financial assistance such as strike benefits and other hardship help benefits that support union members and their families.
The Union Plus benefits offered are selected by union members, for union members. As a current or retired union member, you and your family are automatically eligible to start using your Union Plus benefits as described below.
Member Benefits
On the job, you get the protection of a contract and more strength in the workplace. Off the job, the Union Plus programs, using collective purchasing power of millions of union members, offer you a wide range of high quality benefits with great value. Union Plus programs deliver the quality, service and savings that your family deserves.
Member and Consumer Advocacy
The Union Plus Member Advocacy Program will assist you if you have questions or concerns about any of the Union Plus programs. Full-time union member advocates are devoted solely to providing you immediate help. Union Plus also provides a wealth of consumer information to help you improve the quality of your life everyday.
Delivering Savings and Unique Benefits
With the Union Plus programs, you and your family will receive union member-only rates, discounts on anything from your monthly phone bill to your car insurance. The Union Plus program also provides special features like skip payments and financial assistance in the event of disability or layoff. That is why you will not find the savings and benefits associated with the Union Plus program anywhere else.
