Prescription Drug Plan
The plan pays the participating pharmacy rate for prescription drugs after a co-payment ($9 for 2001) for each 34-day prescription or refill. The plan covers up to a three-month supply of a maintenance prescription drug after you pay a co-payment for each month's supply.

Workers' Compensation
The Illinois Workers' Compensation Law is a no-fault insurance plan that is supervised by the state and one hundred percent (100%) paid for by Pharma Logistics^â. This law was designed to provide you with benefits for any injury that you might suffer in connection with your employment. Under the provisions of the law, if you are injured while at work, you are eligible to apply for Workers' Compensation.

Unemployment Compensation
Pharma Logistics^â pays a percentage of its payroll to the Unemployment Compensation Fund according to Pharma Logistics'^â employment history. If you become unemployed, you may be eligible for unemployment compensation, under certain conditions, for a limited period of time.

Social Security
The United States Government operates a system of contributory insurance known as Social Security. As a wage earner, you are required by law to contribute a set amount of your weekly wages to the trust fund from which benefits are paid. As your employer, Pharma Logistics^â is required to deduct this amount from each paycheck you receive. In addition, Pharma Logistics^â matches your contribution dollar for dollar, thereby paying one-half of the cost of your Social Security benefits.
