Welcome to the District No. 9, International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers Pension and Welfare Trusts Website. Our goal for this site is to provide our membership with timely information about benefits, any updates and have easy access to necessary forms. Eligible members are supplied a Summary Plan Description which outlines the coverage under the Plan. Any policy updates are noted in the Trusts' Newsletter "For Your Benefits". Please take the time to read and understand the benefits of your Plan. If you have any questions or need clarification, please contact the Fund Office. We are dedicated to keeping our membership informed and aware of how their benefits work.

 

Members that are eligible for Health & Welfare coverage are urged to utilize HealthLink contracted providers to obtain the highest level of benefits. The HealthLink website has a user friendly physician/hospital locator. Refer to our LINKS page for more about this.

 

The Welfare Fund may no longer discuss your health information (including eligibility information) with your family members without your specific written authorization. In order to continue providing uninterrupted customer service to our members, please complete an authorization for yourself and each covered family member (not needed on minor children). This form provides you with the opportunity to identify those individuals that you would like to have access to your health information. Refer to our FORMS page for more about this.

 

The Trustees continue to take prompt and effective action to protect your health coverage and retirement security. Through a disciplined plan and advice from their consultants, the Trustees have taken action to control healthcare costs and still provide for new health benefits. The Trustee’s commitment to their fiduciary obligations is seen in the decisions they have made to make the Trusts financially stronger for the retirement security and healthcare needs of thousands of Machinist families.

 

Two new Management Trustees have recently joined the Pension and Welfare Trusts, Chris Adelmann employed by the St. Louis Auto Dealers Association and James J. Jost of South Side Machine Works, Inc. Mr. Adelmann replaced Dave Crafton and Mr. Jost was elected following the retirement of Kenneth Ramsey. Mr. Ramsey retired in May 2007 with nearly 25 years of outstanding service to the Trusts.

 

We are currently in the process of updating our website, so please visit often.
