In celebration of its 55th anniversary, the British Columbia Construction Association Employee Benefit Trust (BCCA EBT) announced charitable donations of $5,500 to each of three vital organizations that represent and support causes that align closely with the top health claims received from its members: the BC Mental Health Foundation, the BC Diabetes Foundation, and the BC Cancer Foundation.
For more than five decades, the BCCA EBT has supported the health outcomes of its members, which now include more than 9,000 employees at 500 businesses. At the heart of its mission is a commitment to people, which includes its members, their families, and their communities. Through initiatives like these donations and its range of health benefits, BCCA EBT is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of its members.
“Our unwavering commitment to providing comprehensive and flexible benefits has been vital in ensuring our members and their families receive the support they need in the communities they work and live in,” said Arthur Chung, CEO of BCCA EBT. “As we celebrate this anniversary, we reaffirm our mission to continuously improve our offerings and support the evolving needs of our members. Together, we look forward to fostering a healthier and more secure future for everyone, remembering that we are all about people and families, not shareholders.”
Originally serving construction employees, the BCCA EBT has grown to support members in diverse fields, from architecture to manufacturing, reflecting the diversity of B.C.’s communities. The trust remains committed to personalized care, data-driven solutions, and supporting the full spectrum of health needs.
The BCCA EBT has served the construction industry and beyond for 55 years, providing comprehensive, adaptable health benefit solutions to more than 9000 employees across 500 B.C. businesses. By emphasizing personalized care and fostering community well-being, the BCCA EBT remains a trusted health benefits partner for organizations of all sizes.
“As companies grow, the BCCA EBT plays a vital role in helping them recruit, retain and protect their workforce, thereby strengthening the entire industry. When businesses thrive, the BCCA EBT grows alongside them, reinforcing their commitment to ensuring that the construction workforce has access to essential resources and support during times of need. I’m proud to be part of an organization that prioritizes the health and well-being of the construction industry, and I congratulate the BCCA Employee Benefit Trust on 55 years of excellence,” said Chris Atchison, president, BCCA.
