Benefits

Having a union makes a difference. Local 1500 members are far more likely to receive benefits from their jobs than workers who work in a non-union workplace.

UFCW Local 1500 members have a vast array of benefits including, but not limited to, Health Care, retirement plans, dental benefits, a vision plan, death benefits, a Scholarship Program and a Legal Services fund. The benefits levels do vary at different workplaces based on the contract that has been negotiated with your employer.

For specific information on which benefits you’re eligible for and when you are eligible for them you can call 1-800-522-0456.
