CHEF
Benefits Program
Today,
ACF offers its members more benefits with more tangible economic
advantages than ever before. Benefits that are tailored to the unique
circumstances of the profession...and they are portable! Chefs have
one of the highest mobility rates of any profession, and those practicing
culinary careers need benefit programs that can move when opportunity
and advancement call!
Travel
and Accident Insurance Coverage
A $25,000 death and dismemberment benefit covers members while
they travel to and from ACF meetings or business. In addition,
there is a coordinate accidental medical plan that offers coverage
up to $5,000 (with a deductible) for members while traveling to
and from ACF meetings or business-related functions.
Complimentary
Term Life Insurance
Automatically as part of your membership dues package, the policy
provides a $5,000 death benefit for every member in good standing
under age 65. For members age 65 through 69, the policy provides
a $2,500 death benefit, and for those 70 and over, a $1,000 benefit.
Our coverage with Canada Life Assurance Company expires when a
member reaches age 70. At that point, ACF provides a death benefit
of $1,000.00 for members in good standing.
Dental
Insurance
This is a managed care program for members and their families.
It is also a portable, comprehensive dental plan which offers
a high level of benefits that emphasize preventative care and
maintenance. Participating dentists are usually located within
a fifteen mile radius of the homes of most ACF members.
