letter from Rio Tinto

Rio Tinto acquired some of American National Can retirees some time ago. Affected employees should have got a letter stating varied things they need to do on the subject of updating benefits.

Do it. Keep in mind, if you opt out of canco programs or insurance; that is it and you are out forever.

always go over "fine print" of any agreements dealing with your insurance and or benefits. folks have reported unfortunate results from dropping canco insurances--cork, cork; rexam; more

also keep in mind, Rio Tinto is not considered the most "employee friendly" outfit according to some.
