Fair Share Fee In accordance with PELRA, any employee included in the appropriate unit who is not a member of the exclusive representative may be required by the exclusive representative to contribute a fair share fee for services rendered as exclusive representative. The fair share fee for any employee shall be in an amount equal to the regular membership dues of the exclusive representative, less the cost of benefits financed through the dues and available only to members of the exclusive representative, but in no event shall the fee exceed eighty-five percent (85%) of the regular membership dues. The exclusive representative shall provide written notice of the amount of the fair share fee assessment and the name of each employee to be assessed to the School District and the written notice of the amount to each employee to be assessed the fair share fee. A challenge by an employee or by a person aggrieved by the assessment shall be filed, in writing, with the Commissioner of the Bureau of Mediation Services (Commissioner), the School District, and the exclusive representative within thirty (30) days after the receipt of the written notice. All challenges shall specify those portions of the assessment challenged and the reasons therefor, but the burden of proof relating to the amount of the fair share fee shall be on the exclusive representative. The School District shall deduct the fee from the earnings of the employee and transmit the fee to the exclusive representative within thirty (30) days after the written notice was provided, or, in the event a challenge is filed, the deductions for a fair share fee shall be held in escrow by the School District pending a decision by the Commissioner or a court. Any fair share fee challenge shall not be subject to the grievance procedure. The exclusive representative hereby warrants and covenants that it will defend, indemnify, and save the School District harmless from any and all actions, suits, claims, damages, judgments, and executions or other forms of liability, liquidated or unliquidated, which any person may have or claim to have, now or in the future, arising out of or by reason of the deduction of the fair share fee specified by the exclusive representative as provided in this Agreement.
