As soon as you join the Texas Federation of Teachers there are four member benefits that start immediately at no cost to you. If you have questions about these or any other benefits please contact Karen Hamilton, TFT Benefits Director, 1-800-222-3827 or khamilton@tft.org.
- Each TFT member is insured with an $8,000,000 Occupational Liability Insurance policy. This is your professional educational worker insurance, to protect members against lawsuits filed by a student or a students' parents, when the member is acting within the scope of their duties as a district employee. This includes $35,000 Legal Action Trust to protect against criminal incidents. It also includes civil rights violation claims.
- Every member is insured with a Legal Defense Fund to protect against any employment related claim issue. This policy is funded as a joint venture between your chartered local, TFT and AFT.
- All TFT members receive a $25,000 Accidental Death and Dismemberment coverage through a policy held by the AFT. This policy covers common carrier accidents. Each member should fill out an AD&D beneficiary card and put a copy in his/her personal files. Please contact the TFT benefits director for a beneficiary card.
- As a special gift for joining TFT, members can activate a $10,000 Term Life Insurance policy that is no cost to you for one full year. At the end of one year you will be invited to continue service, the choice is yours. Sign up today and start your benefit!
