THE ALASKA TEAMSTER-EMPLOYER WELFARE TRUST (ATEWT)

As a Teamster Local 959 member, you may be covered by the Alaska Teamster-Employer Welfare Plan, provided your Employer has agreed to participate in the Plan through collective bargaining. Like the Pension plan, the Plan is administered by a joint Board of Trustees. The Board is comprised of an equal number of employer representatives and employee (Union) representatives. The Trust also employs skilled Customer Service Representatives to provide information and answer any questions you may have regarding your benefit coverage.

The Welfare Trust office in Anchorage may be contacted at (907) 751-9700. You may use the toll free number, (800) 478-4450, if you are calling from outside the Anchorage area.
