Reach those responsible for benefits in a variety of sectors, including multiemployer plan trustees, administrators and public plan representatives. These conferences attract those central to the decision-making process. Sponsors can target specific audiences, or broaden their impact by cross-marketing to several sectors in the benefits arena.
What are multiemployer plans?
Multiemployer health and welfare and pension plans are established through collective bargaining between one or more labor unions and two or more employers. Multiemployer plans are found in many industries, but are most common in the construction, retail, trucking, hotel and entertainment industries.
How do funds make purchasing decisions?
Multiemployer funds are governed by a board of trustees consisting of an equal number of labor and management representatives. These trustees have the authority to purchase benefit goods and services for the fund. Individuals who serve on these boards of trustees are the attendees at this conference.
