As part of our continued efforts to communicate your benefits to you in more easily understood mediums, the Benefit Funds has built an educational video library meant to assist you in better comprehending your welfare, pension, and annuity benefits, as well as provide you important information and tips concerning various preventative care and wellness topics. The Benefit Funds believes that all of our members should have a working knowledge of how your benefits work and are administered. Additionally, we are also strong proponents of preventative care practices. We are confident that this video library will help us provide important information to you on both of these topics. The Benefit Funds video library, which you can find in the “Member” section of our website under the “Video Library” subheading (www.nyccbf.org/member/videos/), features easyto-understand explanations of your benefits and the processes by which you can use these benefits. Our preventative care and wellness videos give an overview of various health issues and how you can either prevent them or treat them early on through awareness and behavioral habits. We also have a segment of “FAQ” videos that answer your most frequently asked benefits questions. We know how important it is for you to understand your benefits and take care of your health, and because of this, we are doing everything we can to provide you the information you need to accomplish this. Once again, the Benefit Funds encourages you to check out our new video library by visiting www.nyccbf.org and clicking on the “Video Library” tab, which you can find in the “Member” section of our website. We will also be sure to monitor the usage of our videos and rotate in new topics to give you as wide a range of valuable information as possible.
