Pension, Lump Sum Distribution, Legislation
& YOU
For most prospective CWA retirees, the impact of
the Pension Protection Act of 2006, will be relatively mild. For some, notably
those whose airline pension plans may not survive without the assistance the
legislation affords, it will be critical.
In particular, those members employed by ATT,
BellSouth and Verizon worried about the impact of the legislation on the
calculation of their lump sum pension distribution should not have any
difficulties, particularly as long as those contracts remain in place. There
have been rumblings from the employer community that their willingness to
maintain defined benefit pension plans will drop it if becomes more expensive to
do so under the proposed funding regime. More benefit freezes and even plan
terminations have been predicted.
