Change in YUFA Benefits Carrier to
Sun Life
19 Nov 08 – The YUFA
Subcommittee on Benefits was not informed in advance with respect to the
change in YUFA Benefits carrier from Great West Life to Sun Life. It was
YUFA's position that YUFA should have been included in any tendering
discussions. It is the Employer's position that, while they are obliged
to include YUFA in changes to Long Term Disability (LTD) Insurance, they
are not obliged to do so with respect to the other plans.
