GE Elfun Greater Cincinnati Ohio Chapter

1. Elfun Myth Busters: GE Elfun Greater Cincinnati Ohio Chapter ELFUN Myth: Must have a certain status at the company (career band, pay-level) to join FACT: This used to be an entry requirement along with a nomination process. Today, Elfun is open to all GE employees, both active or retired, across all businesses regardless of band or level. Myth Members must contribute a certain number of volunteer hours. FACT: This requirement was abandoned prior to the GE Volunteers / Elfun split in 2005. Today, all GE Volunteer efforts are coordinated through the GE Volunteers organization, not through GE Elfun. Myth: Elfun = GE Volunteers FACT: Effective 7/1/05, there is only one GE Volunteer organization for the company which includes all affinity and networking groups such as AAF, APAF, Elfun, GESNA, GEWN, GLBT, HF, etc. Myth: Inactive Elfuns must continue paying dues to receive health and medical benefits. FACT: Elfun members who were qualified for Elfun health and medical benefits at the 2005 split remain qualified for previous benefits regardless of dues payment. Annual Membership dues of $25 qualifies members as Active for benefits list on this flyer and any new benefits obtained. Engagement Linking the GE generations Fellowship and fun!

Elfun’s have the ability to bring all other GE networking and affinity groups together by promoting that we are GE people first, then members of specific organizations. We do not distinguish, but rather encourage connections as we promote that we are one GE family, while holding our social events, activities, supporting GE Volunteers efforts, etc. Greater Cincinnati Elfun members span across different local business (such as Home & Business, Money, Aviation, Energy, Aviation Systems, and Healthcare), between different employee groups, and consist of retirees, active employees, and family members. Elfuns are the “Original” affinity and networking group and are focused on bringing value to the company and our members in fun and exciting ways by connecting with other GE employees through a broad spectrum of opportunities and activities.
