At Amalgamated Employee Benefits Administrators (Amalgamated), our foundation is more than a business model. It is a legacy built on the principles of fairness, dignity, and service. For over 80 years, we have proudly served working people and their families, guided by the values of the labor movement and a commitment to continuous innovation.
Our story begins with Sidney Hillman, a pioneering labor leader who founded the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America in 1914. His vision was to improve the lives of working people through collective action and economic empowerment. That vision led to the creation of the Amalgamated Life Insurance Company in 1943, which laid the groundwork for what would become the Amalgamated Family of Companies.
Today, the TPA arm of Amalgamated carries that legacy forward. As part of the Amalgamated Family, we specialize in benefits administration for Taft-Hartley and public/private sector plans. Our deep understanding of union values allows us to deliver services that are not only efficient but also aligned with the principles of solidarity and mutual support.
What sets Amalgamated apart is our unwavering commitment to advocacy. We do more than administer benefits. We work to protect the rights of working people and ensure they receive the care and support they deserve. Whether managing eligibility, processing claims, or supporting compliance, Amalgamated approaches every task with a focus on service and accountability.
Innovation is also central to our mission. While our roots are firmly planted in the beginning of the labor movement, we are always looking ahead. Amalgamated invests in advanced technologies and streamlined processes to enhance the member experience and improve operational efficiency. From secure digital platforms to real-time reporting tools, we are constantly evolving to meet the changing needs of the workforce.
Even as we embrace innovation, we remain grounded in our core values. Every decision we make is guided by a commitment to transparency, reliability, and service excellence. Our clients trust us not only for our capabilities but also for our integrity. We are proud to be a partner that unions can rely on, now and in the future.
Our legacy is not just about where we came from, it is about where we are going. Amalgamated will continue to advocate for working people, embrace new technologies, and uphold the values that have defined us for generations. Because for us, benefits administration is more than a service. It is a mission rooted in union values and built for the future.
