Wayne State University
Good and Welfare
Guidelines
It
is P&A’s desire to recognize certain significant events in its membership’s
lives. These events are currently restricted
to the birth of member's child, a member's death or death in their family, or their
retirement from Wayne State University. These contributions are some suggested guidelines
for the use of union funds for good and welfare purposes.
New
Parent
A
$100.00 U.S. Savings Bond (currently the purchase price of this bond is $50.00) will be
given to a child born to an eligible member.
Member's
Death/Death In The Immediate Family
A
$50.00 memorial contribution will be made to the organization designated by the family of
the deceased. In cases where a particular
organization is not specified, the board and/or it's designee will make the contribution
as it deems appropriate--perhaps a donation to a WSU organization.
Note:
'Immediate Family is defined in our current collective agreement. Husband, wife, mother, father, brother, sister,
son, daughter, grandmother, grandfather, mother-in-law, father-in-law, brother-in-law,
sister-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law and grandchildren. Aunts, uncles,
nephews, nieces and cousins, shall he considered
members of the immediate family only if living in the employee's household.
Unfortunately,
since P&A is staffed primarily by volunteers, it is often difficult to receive notice
of a death and to reach in a timely basis. This is the reason for a memorial gift
rather than flowers. Whenever possible, the President will send a card of sympathy to the
family on behalf of P & A.
Retirement
From WSU
A
$50.00 check will be presented to the eligible member.
The
above-suggested guidelines may be revised by the board as directed by the times.
