Article 7: Health Reimbursement Arrangement >>

7.10 Reciprocity

Contributions received for HRA Accounts are considered part of the overall hourly health and welfare contribution for purposes of reciprocity and will be reciprocated to a Home Fund whenever the total hourly contribution rate for health and welfare coverage is equal to or less than the individual's home hourly contribution rate. See Article 4.4 I.O. Health Reciprocal Agreement and Proration Under Certain Collective Bargaining Agreements for a full description of transferring contributions to a Home Fund and for a description of the crediting of incoming reciprocal contributions. HRA accounts are credited with incoming reciprocity only when the incoming reciprocal transfer is at an hourly rate which exceeds the non-HRA rate of this Plan under the Inside Wireman Agreement.
