"The company today released more details on its contract proposal, specifically in regard to health care plans. The company has asked the union to switch to one of the three health care plans offered to salaried employees. Under the expired contract, union members do not pay premiums for their health plan, the company said. They paid an annual maximum in deductibles and co-pays of $500 for individual coverage and $1,000 for family coverage.

Under the most popular of the three salaried workers' plans, the union employees would pay an annual maximum in deductibles and co-pays of $900 for individual coverage and $1,800 for family coverage, according to the company. There would continue to be no monthly premium for the workers for health care coverage. Bob Klein, a company spokesman, said today the company still believes its proposal to the union for health care benefits was "extremely generous and fair."

As the article states, MOCO is still offering to pay all of the worker's premium, but the workers are striking over the increase in the deductible. Seems like the workers are being unreasonable to me.
