Checkoff of Dues Clause Examples
The "Checkoff of Dues" clause authorizes an employer to automatically deduct union membership dues from employees' wages and remit them directly to the union. In practice, this means that employees who have authorized such deductions will have their dues taken out of their paychecks on a regular basis, streamlining the collection process for both the union and its members. This clause ensures reliable and efficient payment of union dues, reducing administrative burdens and minimizing the risk of missed or late payments.
Checkoff of Dues. Company shall deduct from wages and pay over to the proper officers of Union the membership dues of any member of Union or agency fees of any other employee as provided for in Subsection 4.1(a) who individually and voluntarily authorizes such deductions in writing. The form of checkoff authorization shall be approved by Company and Union. (Amended 1-1-83)
Checkoff of Dues. The Employers agree to deduct from wages of each Employee such amount of the Union dues and/or assessments owing by them to the Union, as may be certified by the Financial Officer of the involved Union, provided the Employee has executed a written assignment calling for such a deduction. If an Employer transfers an Employee to a subsidiary and/or sister company, or if an Employee is transferred by the Employer to a joint venture that is formed by the Employer, it is agreed that for purposes of Union dues and/or assessments, the Employee need not execute a new written assignment calling for such deductions. Consequently, the deductions will continue without interruption and will be forwarded to the Union by the Employer who is then paying the Employee. Such deductions shall be transmitted to the Union within ten (10) days following the end of each calendar month. Appropriate transmittal forms shall be supplied to each Employer by the Union. Each signatory Union shall notify the Employer of the amount to be deducted. The above deductions shall be made by the Employer so long as such payments are deemed in compliance with applicable law, and the Union agrees to indemnify the Employer for any litigation costs, expenses or liabilities which an Employer may incur from compliance with this provision.
