The IBEW plan is a qualified 401(k) plan, not an IRA, that was established by the IBEW Trustees in 1975 as a bargained benefit for members when they retire. This plan provides strict plan governance and oversight to ensure that the total fees, cost and structure benefit members and their families throughout their retirement years.

Brief overview of Scarborough Alliance and IBEW plan:

Scarborough Alliance offers the IBEW Local Unions Savings and Security Plan and the Local Union Retirement Program. The IBEW Plan is a qualified retirement plan that accepts Verizon Pension lump sum and Verizon Fidelity 401(k) rollovers. The IBEW plan was established for IBEW members as a benefit for members to invest, save, and take out distributions during their retirement years.

• • Scarborough acts in an ERISA fiduciary capacity for the IBEW Local Unions Savings and Security Plan (IBEW Plan).
  • The plan has a high level of oversight and governance due to the ERISA fiduciary status.
  • All fees, including investment and consulting, are overseen by the fiduciary team to ensure plan and costs are in the IBEW member’s best interests.
  • IBEW trustees meet with the Fiduciary team (Trustees, legal, investment and Scarborough) on a quarterly basis, annually, to review the investments offered within the plan, including all recordkeeping, consulting, and administrative fees.
  • Scarborough also offers the Local Union Retirement Income Program for investments that do not qualify to be rolled into the IBEW plan.

Our current collective bargaining agreement with Verizon is set to expire Saturday August 1st, 2026. The IBEW System Council T6 along with IBEW Local 2213, IBEW Local 827 and CWA Districts 1 and 2-13 have agreed to meet with Verizon for a limited amount of time in January to explore the possibility of a contract extension. The IBEW and CWA remain focused on our members priorities, and will provide an update on these discussions as soon as one is available. While we hope these talks prove productive, it is imperative that we continue to prepare for contract expiration by mobilizing and showing our solidarity.
