What Plan Am I In?

Your health benefits are determined by the collective bargaining agreement or contract negotiated between your union, SEIU Local 32BJ, and your employer. There are several health funds that cover members of SEIU Local 32BJ and each health fund may have more than one plan of benefits, depending on how much your employer is required to contribute.

This is a general guide to assist you in identifying your health fund and plan. Please check with your union delegate/steward, consult your contract or call Member Services 212-388-3500 if you are unsure of which fund may cover you.

In general, members working in New York City (except the Bronx), Long Island, New Jersey, Westchester, Connecticut, Philadelphia suburbs, Washington, D.C., Montgomery County, Northern Virginia, and Baltimore are covered by the Building Service 32BJ Health Fund, which offers several plans of benefits (subject to other requirements such as number of days or hours worked).
