PREGNANCY BENEFITS
The Pregnancy benefit provides financial assistance to expectant members who would otherwise need to continue working in an environment that could pose a risk to both the mother and the unborn child. This benefit instead allows these members to take paid time off prior to the birth of their child without having to exhaust their Federal government Employment Insurance (EI) benefits.
This benefit will pay qualifying members the equivalent of the current Federal Employment Insurance (EI) rate for up to 24 weeks during pregnancy.
MATERNITY BENEFIT PLAN
The UA Maternity Benefit plan is through UA International, where members can receive an additional short term disability benefit following their childbirth.
This benefit is is payable in the amount of $500/week for up to 6 weeks and is available to members in good standing who have given birth. This benefit can be combined with the UA Canada Maternity SUB, but must be applied for separately.
To apply, log into your uanet.org account and look for
