What We Do
Local 177 has been fighting for working-class families under the parent organization known as the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, founded in 1903. We stand up for our members in the legislative, political, and social landscapes.
Who We Are
Our staff is made up of hard-working men and women who know workers' rights. Our Executive Board and Agents have more than 300 years of combined experience standing up to employers.
Who We Represent
We represent workers from the Jurisdiction of Nothern NJ Including Monmouth County and all counties north of Monmouth County.
Members should contact Cotiviti no later than Monday, 1/24/22. As a reminder, members may contact Cotiviti directly at (888) 625-7526. Cotiviti has a helpline available 12 hours a day (8 am to 8 pm Eastern Time), five days a week (Monday through Friday) to assist with questions.
Families that did not respond by 1/24/22 will have their unverified dependents terminated as of 1/24/22. For those dependents in which incomplete documents were provided, their eligibility will end on 1/31/22.
After 1/31/22, the Trust Fund Office will accept the requested dependent documents by fax at (602) 324-0555 or through our secure portal at www.ssatpa.com. Submissions of the requested documents should be clearly labelled with the Enrollee’s UPS ID or SSN.
Once the documents are received and processed, coverage will be reinstated (retroactive to the termination date [1/25/22] for those date ranges in which they had compensable time). Reinstatement of dependent coverage may take 5- 10 Business days to process and it is recommended that members contact Cotiviti to prevent any disruption of their dependent’s eligibility in the health plan.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Teamsters Local 177 Executive Board

We are pleased to report, because of the extreme generosity of our members, this year's donations rivalled that of our prior years and continue to spread the generosity to much-needed families.
