County of Ventura SEIU 721 represented employees,
 
We will be bargaining with the County over the impact of the Alameda Decision which will exclude the non-payable Flex Credit in the calculation of the VCERA retirement benefit. While the County has a proposal on the table that would create a Health Reimbursement Account (HRA), we are looking for other solutions that can help mitigate the impact on Classic Members.
 
Please take a few moments to fill out this survey and let us know if you have questions or possible solutions. We will carefully review your input and ideas.
 
For questions, contact Tri-Counties Regional Coordinator Edwin Valdez at edwin.valdez@seiu721.org, (805) 766-7499.

Let's stand up for a secure retirement!
 
In Solidarity, SEIU Local 721
