UNION PLUS

Union Plus is a non-profit and the ONLY consumer benefits organization created and endorsed by the AFL-CIO.  Our mission is to improve the quality of life for union members and their families, provide valuable benefits and services that strengthen the ties of union members to their unions, and contribute funding to the labor movement.

If you're a current or retired union member, you are automatically eligible for your union’s Union Plus Benefits. Often times, your parents, spouse and children are also eligible. No Union Plus membership, no fees, no waiting period, no hassle.

AD&D INSURANCE COVERAGE  (Automatic Benefit)

Complete the Designation of Beneficiary for Accidental Death and Dismemberment Policy  form and submit to CFT Treasurer, Catie Lanouette: treasurercft@gmail.com  (Open the link and click the printer icon to fill out in Chrome and then print)

The AFT has arranged for all active, working members* in good standing to have a $5,000 accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance policy from Federal Insurance Company, a member insurer of the Chubb Group of Insurance Companies. The AD&D benefit is included in your AFT local union membership, so you’re already covered.

Whether an accident resulting in a covered injury or loss of life happens at work or away, this AD&D insurance coverage pays you or your beneficiary a cash benefit.

As one of the valuable benefits of AFT membership, the AFT has paid for this coverage for ALL eligible members of the AFT.
