Emergency Health Benefits

 

August 20, 2024 - All TCRC Members,

On August 18th, all 3 bargaining committees have provided their own negotiation updates outlining developments as we proceed to the lockout deadline of August 22nd (0001). To summarize:

All three committees remain at the table with the help of federal mediators, willing and ready to engage with the carriers. Unfortunately CN and CPKC continue to demonstrate their unwillingness to respect affected TCRC members – as of this writing there has been no meaningful advancements that any committee can report.

Another update is to provide information regarding emergency health benefits during the work stoppage. As you should know, all health benefits currently in place with the carriers will cease during this time.

As a result, emergency health benefits have been secured and are attached below. It must be understood these benefits apply to emergency care only, which includes dental and major medical coverage. The claim form is also attached, or alternatively available by contacting a local Division Officer.

As always, developments will be relayed to the membership through all means available. Please download the TCRC App as the quickest and most comprehensive source in this regard.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, we remain,

In Solidarity,
