Published Monthly Editor/Publisher

Some companies are avoiding Obamacare penalties by offering “skinny” insurance plans that provide employees with minimum coverage such as preventive care but little else, including benefits to help cover hospitals stays.

Thomas McAnally tmcanally@componentadvertiser.com

Advertising Thomas McAnally Position available

Minimum coverage qualifies as acceptable under the Thomas McAnally - Editor new healthcare-reform law, so benefit advisers and insurance brokers are pitching minimum plans nationally, reports the Wall Street Journal.

Subscriptions Renae McAnally

Employers are recognizing they can avoid a $2,000-per-worker penalty by providing such policies, even though the plans often don’t cover basics such as surgery, X-rays, or prenatal care, let alone hospitalization.

The employers still could face penalties, but they expect them to be less than the the $2,000 per worker for opting out of Obamacare. As a result, the Journal reported, more companies are seeking minimum-coverage plans and creating what amounts to a new industry of basic-insurance brokers and benefit administrators pushing the plans to clients.

Some low-benefit plans will cost employers as little as $40 to $100 per employee monthly, the Journal noted.

“For certain organizations, it may be an ideal solution to minimize the cost of opting out,” David Ellis, chief executive of Youngtown, Ariz.-based LifeStream Complete Senior Living, told the Journal.

Ellis said his firm, which employs about 350 people, may consider the low-benefit plan in order to comply with the law.

Department of Health and Human Services officials say they have seen little evidence of companies switching to the skinny plans, and that most employers are choosing to provide better benefits.

In addition, the limited plans may not appeal to all workers – and could backfire on employers.

While they would avoid the $2,000 fine, they still could be fined $3,000 for each employee who chooses not to take the company coverage and buys insurance through Copyright 2008-2009-2010 -2011-2012-2013 a state healthcare exchange. PO Box 16685 Fernandina Beach, FL. 32035 NO REPRODUCTION IN WHOLE

When someone asked you about your past, what comes to mind? A broken leg? A failed test? A lost love? A missed order? When recalling our “past� we tend to think of negative circumstances? The reality is, our past is populated with more pleasant and positive events than painful and negative ones. There was a time in our younger childhood when life was good. Then the influences of insecure people were imposed upon us and we became covered with clouds of doubt and confusion. Our past became accumulated memories of painful spankings, “NO!�, ouch, stop, wrong. Meanwhile, our mountains of steadily increasing pleasant memories watching birds play, feeling the breeze in our face, watching the sunset, getting a hug, being successful got buried. Our bountiful blessings were covered under layers of repeatedly recalled burdens. As we study the chart below, we are reminded of the recent counter cyclical period, in yellow, where the market failed to rally for three weeks. Instead it declined. The conclusion we can draw is, with the exception of those three weeks, the lumber market is very closely tracking the Forecasted Decision Points. What we also know is, the understandable reason for that Happy Trading...ml deviation was a prolonged wet early spring that delayed jobsite deliveries.

Adverti$er Fragile Markets Produce Big Swings YOU SAW IT IN THE

2013 started off looking like it would be a banner year, with most Traders having record weeks or months. We also read reports of improved housing, and stock markets that continues to climb. All of this positive news prompted buyers to get bullish on lumber, meanwhile supply seemed to be tight as mills maintained 2-3 week order file for most of the 1st quarter. Many people felt this could be the beginnings of a market that won’t lose momentum for years. Some people are referring to this as the next “Super Cycle”.

by David Jara

Then something happened, in the first week in April lumber prices started to peak buyers pull in their horns a bit, and six weeks later people are wondering what happened. Lumber has always been one of the most volatile commodities, and market fluctuations are typical. The last 6 weeks, however has been a

surprise to almost everyone. Lumber prices have been on the rise since June of 2012, and housing has been slowly improving. Production however has also increased, and the supply chain has been built back up, as more companies start to put lumber in reloads, and some distributors [who have not been] are starting to stock commodity lumber again. Another big factor that has gone unnoticed is the amount of lumber that was exported overseas, that in now being left in North America. Now that the tax on the Softwood Lumber Agreement is at 0%, there is more lumber coming from Canada into the US. The buildup of inventory in the first quarter has put Supply and Demand out of balance. The additional shipment to the US will take a bit to clean up, and as prices retreat, we will test the 5% tax rate, encouraging more overseas sales. Meanwhile the price of logs and stumpage has also been increasing and by-products like chips have gone down, affecting producer’s profitability. These factors may lead to some sawmills considering some curtailment of production. With housing starts hovering around 850,000 (SAAR), it doesn’t take much additional inventory in the market place to oversupply the market. The economy is still fragile and producers are eager to stay profitable, if we don’t see a reduction in supply or supply shifted to other markets, prices will remain under pressure. Softwood Lumber Producers in North America have a difficult job, maximizing profits while maintaining the balance of supply. My guess is we will see this type volatile market again, before we see the “Super Cycle”.

Updates on the solid wood market in Canada and the US provided by Keta Kosman, publisher and editor of Madison’s Lumber Reporter. Madison’s is a North American lumber and panel commodity price guide and market analysis newsletter, which has been published every Friday out of Vancouver, BC since 1952. For more information please visit http://www.madisonsreport.com

May Lumber Market Analysis By Keta Kosman Publisher, Madison's Lumber Reporter April 24, 2013 May 27, 2013 As the month of May plunged headlong into June, the great run-up of lumber prices through 1Q 2013 reversed in magnificent fashion. Not that prices returned to the lows both customers and producers became accustomed to in the past few years, far from it. However, the price drops of the past four weeks have effectively erased gains made at the beginning of this year. A spurt of oversupply is credited for falling prices, although capacity at most North American operations is still running below 90 per cent and production levels aren’t exactly breaking any records either. The mysterious rumblings out of customers in China is causing a lot of confusion: traders from that country quietly bought Canadian studs in April, from British Columbian producers, in enough volumes to drive the price right out of reach of traditional North American customers. That spike was, of course, not sustained. However benchmark WSPF KD 2x4 #2&Btr studs last week settled at US$335 mfbm, almost exactly where they were at the start of January. While these prices are currently lower than they were at this time last year, readers would do well to remember that the Sinclar Group’s Lakeland stud mill in Prince George, BC, exploded on April 23, 2012. That catastrophic event sent stud prices higher through the US building season last summer. Since that sudden large buy of studs in April, buyers in China have been largely absent in solid

wood commodity trading. Sawmills in BC especially are concerned about the disappearance of this important new-found customer, because the buying seasons in the US and in China are almost diametrically opposed. What will Canadian mills do this winter without sizable buying from China come November, when the US traditionally stops buying almost entirely? Producers and wholesalers reported to Madison’s that there were calls and inquiries from China last week but no sales were booked. The suspicion is that the recent price increases on a wide range of lumber and panel products was enough to send overseas customers looking for less expensive wood from other jurisdictions, specifically Europe. Meanwhile, DIY and remodelling season in the US routinely kicks off with the Memorial Day Holiday, and this year is expected to be no exception. Lumber retailers and box stores will likely be flooded with American homeowners looking for building materials to use on their properties. As well, the large US home builders have been carrying lean inventories indeed. Following the long weekend there will be a great taking-stock of existing lumber supplies, and possibly some degree of ordering to fill whatever inventory holes there might be. The latest US housing starts data showed a more than 14 per cent increase in building permits, so ground-breaking for new homes in May and June should be quite robust. It does seem that the recent steep price correction has slowed, if not reversed. In fact, after waffling up and down by $10 or $20 in the past couple of weeks, benchmark panel commodity OSB 7/16” Ontario actually gained $10 last week, to close at C$360 msf. Back in British Columbia, labour negotiations are currently underway between the United Steelworkers and employers for the next three-year contract. After preliminary discussions, the USW this week has chosen to work with Canfor to commence bargaining for the Interior Forest Industry. The union will work with Canfor to set a pattern bargaining agreement for all operations in the interior of the province. The next meeting between the employer and the union is set for June 12.

Safety First! Safety Meeting Topics From State Fund CA.

Safety and Substance Abuse Dont Mix Drug use and alcohol consumption are normally considered personal issues. They only become an employers concern when they affect safety and worker performance. Drug and alcohol abuse cost employers through high absenteeism and sick pay. Abusers hurt themselves and their families if they lose their job as a result of their actions. If they are fired or cannot function on the job, the company loses the services of an experienced worker. Those under the influence of drugs or alcohol cause friction in the work group, lower morale and work efficiency, use poor judgment that results in bad decisions, and give the company a poor public image. Certain times of the year individuals should be especially aware of their alcohol and drug consumption. In the winter months when the days are dark and dreary, some people experience a sense of depression or seasonal affected disorder (SAD). They may turn to drugs or alcohol in the mistaken belief it will relieve the symptoms of the disorder.

Adverti$er La seguridad y la drogadicción o el alcoholismo no se mezclan

El uso de drogas y el consumo de alcohol se consideran generalmente asuntos de índole personal. Éstos solamente incumben al empleador cuando afectan la seguridad y el desempeño del trabajador. La drogadicción y el alcoholismo tienen un costo elevado para los empleadores por ser causas del ausentismo laboral elevado y de las ausencias por enfermedad con goce de salario. Los drogadictos y los alcohólicos se lastiman a sí mismos y a sus familias si pierden sus trabajos como resultado de sus acciones. Si se les despide o si no pueden desarrollar las funciones del trabajo, la empresa pierde los servicios de un trabajador con experiencia. Aquéllos que se conducen bajo la influencia del alcohol o las drogas causan fricción en el grupo de trabajo, bajan la moral y la eficiencia en el trabajo, utilizan el mal juicio que resulta en malas decisiones, y dan una mala imagen pública a la empresa. Durante algunas épocas del año, las personas deben estar especialmente conscientes de su consumo alcohólico y de drogas. Durante los meses de invierno, cuando los días son opacos y lúgubres, algunas personas padecen de algún tipo de depresión o de síndromes estacionales (SAD, por sus siglas en inglés). Ellos pueden optar por consumir drogas o alcohol con la falsa esperanza de que eso les aliviará los síntomas del trastorno. La época de las fiestas de fin de año, con un mayor número de reuniones sociales o de mayor tensión nerviosa por problemas económicos, conduce a muchas personas a excederse en el uso de drogas o en el consumo de alcohol, especialmente este año de celebración del nuevo milenio. Todos aquellos que consumieron alcohol o drogas en exceso ayer, y tienen resaca hoy, pueden sentirse faltos de coordinación, aún tratando de recuperarse y quizá no le presten completa atención a los aspectos de seguridad que su trabajo requiere. Su juicio y desempeño seguro se verán seriamente disminuidos y aumentará la posibilidad de que ellos o sus compañeros de trabajo sufran accidentes o lesiones.

The holiday season, with increased social gatherings or added financial stress, leads some people to misuse drugs or alcohol, especially during this year of millennium celebration. Those who over-consumed alcohol or drugs yesterday and are hung over today may feel out of sorts, still trying to recover, and may not give all their attention to the safety aspects of their job.
