Benefits Conferences Postponed

January 2005

Officials from the Seafarers Health and Benefits Plan (SHBP) announced as this issue of the LOG went to press that the benefits conferences originally scheduled to begin this month and run through mid-February have been postponed until further notice. The postponement in part stems from unforeseen scheduling conflicts due to a late change in AFL-CIO meeting dates and also due to national security issues (significant numbers of vessel activations). The SHBP apologizes for any inconvenience caused by the postponement. The Plan will announce new conference dates as soon as they are confirmed. All active members, pensioners and their spouses will be invited to the sessions, which will provide an update on the latest happenings with the various Plans. ###
