Severance Benefit
The SASMI severance benefit — a benefit amount based on your past and future service credit — payable to you following 12 months of separation from the Sheet Metal Industry. This benefit was modified in 2009, but if you “accrued” a SASMI severance benefit before December 31, 2009, you may still be eligible to receive a benefit when you permanently separate from the industry. To find out if you’re eligible and to see how this benefit is calculated, refer to your Summary Plan Description.

“Without the help of SASMI, my family and I wouldn’t have been able to keep our health insurance when I wasn’t able to work. We needed the help; my wife was expecting our second child at the time. Thank you, SASMI!”
