MISSION STATEMENT
The LRO Board has
formed a Benefits Team, with a mission
to champion the concerns and issues of
members and retirees in their
day-to-day dealings with Alcatel-Lucent, its
agents and others entities - and to
inform every retiree of the results.
This includes:
-
Responsiveness: The
BT will provide facts, references,
templates and shared experiences
to help members and retirees deal
with benefit concerns, in response
to individual needs and to
retirees, at large. The BT shall
make no recommendations for
retiree's choices and exercise
caution to assure that its
communications does not provide
improper guidance.
-
Liaison with
others: The BT will maintain
liaison with other retiree groups
and support organizations to
advance its mission.
-
Communications: The
BT will review all Alcatel-Lucent
communications to retirees for
accuracy, consistency and
completeness and convey proposals
for action to the LRO Board. BT
will maintain web site pages for
providing links of interest to
retirees and a discussion board
for benefits. Articles in the LRO
newsletter will summarize
important results.
-
Formal support: In
exemplary cases, the BT will
assist retirees in filing formal
claims with Alcatel-Lucent and government
agencies. Retirees are expected to
first use "normal
channels" before requesting
the BT's support. The BT may
also recommend legal action to the
LRO Board in exceptional cases.
-
Expert assistance:
The LRO Board will provide an
annual budget for expert services
to support this effort, as
appropriate.
