The Trustees work diligently to ensure that the plan
runs smoothly. They act solely in the best interest of the plan
and its beneficiaries, in line with their mission
statement and the Trust Document.
Their activities include:
| |
establishing and
administering the fund; |
| |
entering into all necessary
contracts; |
| |
establishing and administering
reserve
funds; |
| |
appointing and monitoring
the performance of the administrator, consultants, insurance
carriers, etc.; |
|
| |
investing funds
and paying expenses; |
| |
communicating regularly and
openly with plan members and parties; |
| |
reviewing requests from parties
for additional expanded services; |
| |
making plan changes, where
allowed; and |
| |
increasing rates resulting
from plan experience. |
|
The Trustees cannot make plan changes that result
in material rate increases or add new benefits to the plan on a
cost-shared basis. Also, to increase or enhance benefits, the Trustees
require unanimous approval or direction from the parties.
