Common use of HOME FUNDING Clause in Contracts

HOME FUNDING. The Employer shall be allowed, at the Employer’s option, to home- fund fringe benefits for employees traveling outside the geographic jurisdiction of this Agreement but within the jurisdiction of the North Central States Regional Council of Carpenters (NCSRCC), provided: 1) the Employer is signatory or agrees to become signatory to the NCSRCC Council Wide Agreement or a NCSRCC collective bargaining agreement covering the work in the geographic jurisdiction in which the work is being performed; and 2) provided that that other NCSRCC Agreement also contains this or another homefunding provision (or is the NCSRCC Council Wide Agreement or the UBC #1 Agreement). Should the Employer perform work covered by an agreement within the NCSRCC jurisdiction without becoming signatory to an agreement covering such work, this Section shall not apply to said Employer. In such case, the Union will notify the Employer and the Association in writing, which notice shall only be effective upon delivery and provide the Employer a two week period to cure the violation. Should the Employer fail to cure the violation, this home funding clause shall cease effective on the following work month. The Employer may challenge the Union’s assertion through the dispute resolution process contained in this Agreement. The employer will notify the union and affected fund offices when home funding under this article. Under such circumstances, the following provision shall apply: When the Employer assigns an employee to work outside the geographic jurisdiction of this Agreement, the Employer will pay the total taxable wage, the savings withholding/remittance, the defined benefit pension, defined contribution, and health funds at the home area rates specified in this Agreement to the home area funds specified in this Agreement. The working dues checkoff withholding/remittance, and all other nontaxable fringe benefits, including training, UBC funds, LMC, IAP, etc., will be paid to the funds specified in the NCSRCC agreement covering the geographic jurisdiction in which the work is being performed, and at the rates specified in that agreement. Employees traveling to work outside the geography of this Agreement shall not be paid less than the total package required in their home area under this Agreement. In the event the total package for the area in which work is being performed is higher than the total package under this Agreement, the additional amount shall be added to the base wage of the employee to equalize the total package paid to the traveling employee with the total package the applies in the area where the work is being performed. An employer that home-funds fringe benefits for an employee in compliance with this home-funding provision shall not under any circumstances be required to additionally pay the same fringe benefits under this Agreement and an Agreement covering the geography where the work was performed (i.e., no double payment of fringes). Nothing in this Section shall prevent the Union and Employer from mutually agreeing to terms that differ from this Section.
