Skilled1 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 During a strike or lock out (regardless of the length of time) the UAW will pay us $200 per week plus catastrophic medical coverage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Jones Posted October 16, 2011 Author Share Posted October 16, 2011 Thanks. The vote results have changed since I originally posted, but we still have a ways to go. Catastrophic medical is better than nothing as long as you don't have someone with on going health issues which can't wait. I'm curious as to why COBRA doesn't apply. If Ford drops my insurance why can't I pay the premium until everything gets settled, if it comes to that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UAW isn't going to pay people to sit at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
