Retired
workers and their spouses learn about issues that are of particular
importance to them as seniors in the Retired Workers Program.
Through NTC-sponsored conferences, seminars and the New
Horizons
newsletter, the program addresses topics such as:
- The Aging Process
- Changing Financial Needs
- Leisure Time Activities
- Health and Fitness
- Coping with Boredom,
Loneliness,
Depression and Grief
- Volunteering
- UAW Retiree Chapters
- Political and Union Activism
For more information about
conferences, talk to your UAW Retiree Chapter Chairperson or contact Darrell
Motley, UAW, or Dorothy Jett-Carter,
DaimlerChrysler, at the NTC.
For more
information specifically designed for both UAW and non-union retirees,
visit the Chrysler Group Retirees Homepage.
There, retirees or the
spouses or surviving spouses of a retiree, can:
- Read the DaimlerChrysler
Times.
- Get a deal on a new
vehicle
through DaimlerChrysler Employee Advantage.
- Visit the Chrysler,
Jeep and Dodge brand sites.
- Sign up for your benefits.
- Get answers to your
benefit questions with easy-to-find phone numbers, Web sites, claims instructions,
etc.
- Manage your 401(k).
- Sign up to have your
prescription drugs delivered to your home.
The Future
Planning Program, designed primarily for active workers, can also be
an important tool for retirees.
The 10-session program,
held at UAW Local halls, includes guest speakers who are specialists in areas
from health and relationships to finance and retirement benefits. Retired workers
from the local are also able to attend these sessions if there is room for more
than the active workers enrolled.
For those retirees who can't
attend such sessions, the NTC has put Future Planning Program Participant's
Manual online. The manual includes the classroom materials used in the Future
Planning Program sessions. To view them, click
here or click on the photo of the manual. The files can be read online or
printed out.
For more information on
this program, contact Darrell Motley,
UAW, or Dorothy Jett-Carter, DaimlerChrysler,
at the NTC.
