| | ACTRA - National (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25) |
 | | July 20, 2004 - In the recent negotiation of the new National Commercial Agreement (NCA), ACTRA proposed, as it had successfully done in the IPA negotiations last May, that the engager contribution to insurance be increased by 1 point, giving members a 33% increase in insurance contributions (from 3% to 4%). |
 | | The engagers' response was unprecedented, alarming and inappropriate. |
 | | In the end, the engagers recognized this and accepted an ACTRA proposal to have all insurance and retirement plan contributions, including the equalization payments, paid directly to ACTRA rather than to AFBS. |
