PSA : You still need to pay your machinist custom choice benefits when your out for Short/Long term disability or Workmans Comp

When you are out on short term / long term / workmans comp your company benefits continue as normal but your Machinist Custom Choice benefits do not. You MUST continue paying those or you risk them auto cancelling due to lack of payment. This is not something the union can do for you and it isn’t something your employeer does either. Its up to you to maintain those benefits when you are out of work. The following are useful contacts, I will also add them to the benefits page.
