Informational Conference Slide Program

Unemployment and Sickness Benefits

Retired Employee and Spouse Benefits

Survivor Benefits and Items Affecting All Benefits

The U.S. Railroad Retirement Board's Informational Conference Program began in October 1957, over 40 years ago. Sponsored by the Office of the Labor Member, these conferences are conducted at the request of the Chief Executives of the railway labor unions. They are designed to provide local union officers with comprehensive information about the benefits available to members and their families under the railroad retirement and unemployment insurance systems. By attending these conferences, union officers become better informed and better able to provide accurate and reliable information to their members.

A major part of the Informational Conference Program is the slide presentation examining the various benefits provided active, retired and disabled rail workers and their families and survivors. You may view these slide materials by selecting from the topics at the left. Skip past Labor Member Office Links
