After coming into office, one of David's initial requests to the membership was to approve the creation of a new staff position, a Benefits Specialist. There is now a staff member dedicated to assisting members with their benefit plans. This initiative has provided Local 720 members with a single point of contact for support with health insurance plans, retirement plans, the Disability Income Fund, and unemployment insurance. As part of this job, the Benefits Specialist can also help connect members with groups who provide assistance in times of need. Behind the Scenes, the Entertainment Community Fund, and ULAN have all helped members of Local 720 members in different ways.
Hopefully you never need the services of our charity partners. But, Local 720 can send a referral letter if you do need assistance. You can also offer help to your union kin and their families by encouraging them to contacting our Benefits Specialist.
