All IBEW Local Union # 972 Stewards & Members
Collection for Brother James P Farley Jr
Brothers & Sisters,
I need to bring to your attention that Brother James P Farley Jr "Chewy" has not been able to report to work while recovering from knee procedure.
It has been the policy of this local union to help its members in need. Therefore, I ask that a collection be taken by each project Steward and at the Union Hall to assist him during these hard times.
Thank you in advance for your generosity and compassion for your brother Jimmy.
United We Stand,
Michael E Haught
Business Manager

The Fund is asking members to complete this survey to help us ensure Fund benefits are going to eligible participants - for example health coverage and death benefits. We are also asking if members’ spouses have access to health coverage other than through the Fund. We are currently reviewing the eligibility rules as part of our responsibility as Trustees and ongoing management of the Fund.
Having a better understanding of spousal coverage options will help us make a decision that is fair and equitable for our members and the Fund.
We'd like to hear from as many members as possible. It should take only a few minutes to complete.
To get started, visit the Member Dashboard (registration and log in required). The survey will automatically display after login. If you haven’t registered yet, use the “Register” link to complete the process. .
