Hopefully sign ups will begin Dec 1st Okay,,just ignore the negativity B.S.and stick with the issue.Its none of my business,how much seniority you got,but know this.If you go before you got 30 yrs. your pension is gonna take a big hit.Also make darn sure you got healthcare coverage.Once you leave Ford,consider yourself "on your own" because aint no lower seniority people gonna ever care about what gets done to the retirees in future contracts.Ford has not released the details of the retirement incentives which tells me they dont know exactly what they wanna do just yet.Packages offered may come down to how much seniority you have.Hang in there,when they do come out with the details,examine the offer and sign up if you still want it.Meantime start thinking like a retiree.Save those coupons in the mail.A dollar saved is a dollar earned!You`ll get it,,,,,,,you lucky duck!I`m in the trades,,here is my offer,,,,,,"wanna work another weekend'?

Totally aware of that, the retirement details are there. Other then Romeo everyones package is pretty simple, they also break everything down on the benefits site as to how much at what age. There's nothing to figure out except how many and they can't do that without signing us up. I'm not worried about my income after Ford, I'm not relying on their pension. It was offered, I'm eligible gimme that date. If they think they're just gonna brush us off to the side and we'll be quiet they might want to reconsider.

autoworker2 Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 We were told you will get the buyout if you retire in December. A few are going then . I'm waiting until I get it in writing. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ididntdoit Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Special Retirement Incentives (SRI) and Special Termination of Employment Program (STEP), you sign up they tell you if you're eligible then you get a date. They didn't give numbers other then upto 200 skill trades. I'm sure each individual plant has a target number and date for their plant. It's pretty simple why anyone would tell you different or mislead you other wise is beyond me but doesn't surprise me. Hopefully after they're done spoon feeding temps they'll turn focus on our exit and get us out, I'm hearing rumors of down time for a week or 2 coming up at CAP and it would make sense to let some people go before hand instead of paying their sub pay not that they do things that make sense.

Decker Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) Key Word "rumors".... orders orders orders and "down time"? Of course then you have the CAP`ers that say well..... "they" put up a banner for unemployment sign up at the Hall in the parking lot for March, so you full of shit Decker. Hmmm full of shit maybe but, these CAP`ers don`t read much of anything all the way to the bottom. It was pointed out the banner has been there almost a year, naa Decker you full of shit. Funny thing we had down time when... Feb. and Mar of 2019. 2019 at the bottom of the banner or 2020? I heard... They said... CAP won`t be releasing SRI or STEP members till September 2020. Oh that's what Someone told me Edited December 13, 2019 by Decker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ididntdoit Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I was told it was posted on facebook or the app about running 1 shift for 2 weeks around mid feb, I've looked for the post but it's hard to filter through all the xmas party pics and obituaries of so and so's uncles cousins step brother.

Without proper communication everything is a damn rumor till it happens. When the details are final it will be put in writing.The risk in leaving on 'who said what' is that if anything goes wrong it will be hard to prove 'who said what'.Ask the union rep who says its okay to "leave right away and you will be back paid,$60,000" to put that in writing and date and sign it.

Not assuming we could leave right then but at least having us sign up then eventually getting a date like every other time over the past 2 decades.

Fatso Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) Sit back and enjoy the upcoming 8 paid holidays your union negotiated for us and wait until all the details are worked out.GM is a different company with different needs.I think its all about manpower requirements.I cant believe it when the contract says ALL production personnel will be eligible for a retirement incentive or severance pay if they chose to leave."ALL"?Who`s gonna be left?Fatso?The trades?You wanna hear some screaming and hollering?Wouldnt that be a bitch if hidden in the small print of the contract was allowing the company to assign production work to members of the trades.Quality would take a hit,thats for sure.If thats the case I would make em hafta fire my fat ass.
