Halliburton sues 3 over retiree complaints

Associated Press

HOUSTON (AP) - Halliburton Co. is suing three retired executives who complained about a company plan to stop providing health insurance for retirees eligible for Medicare.

The lawsuit was filed after the retirees, including former Halliburton vice president of human resources Paul Bryant, sent a letter to company officials to complain about the change. Bryant, 58, retired from the oil services conglomerate in 1999.

Halliburton spokeswoman Zelma Branch said the company sued so the dispute would be resolved quickly, allowing the retirees to arrange for their own medical coverage.

Wolfie, check out page 12, column 2 of the Dick Cheney Employee Relations manual...it plainly states that Haliburton reserves the right, if it gets half a chance, to save money by denying health care to retirees, preferably seriously ill ones.
