Benefit Shortages

To check the hours reported by Employers on your behalf, you should use the Member Log-In located at the top right corner of the screen to access your information.

If your Employer does not make contributions to the NYCDCC Benefit Funds for hours you have worked in Covered Employment, you should file a Benefit Shortage Report. You must include copies of pay stubs for the payroll weeks at issue with the shortage report. Please retain a copy of the form and the pay stubs for your own records. The report and accompanying pay stubs can be emailed to us at shortages@nyccbf.org.
