This program sets up the Union Fringe Benefit Dictionary.
The purpose of this program is to enter union contract information into the system. For union contractors, this will be done as the program is setup and whenever union contracts are renegotiated. Unlimited rate tables may be setup. Each rate table may be associated with a different union, or there may be multiple rate tables for a single union. This is used where there are different levels (such as journeyman and apprentice) which are paid different fringe benefit packages.
