All such new employees, as well as present employees covered by this Agreement, if not already members of the Union, shall become members of the Union on the thirty-first (31st) day of continuous employment or thirty-one (31) days following the execution of this Agreement, whichever is later, and shall become and remain a member in good standing of the Union as a condition of continued employment. The Employer shall not and the Union shall not discriminate against any individual with respect to compensation, terms, conditions or privileges of employment because of race, reli- gion, color, sex, sexual orientation, disability, veteran sta- tus, national origin and/or age, as otherwise provided by law. Where the pronouns “he” or “she” or any other pronoun desig- nating sex are used in this Agreement, it shall be deemed to refer to either/and both sexes. The Company shall be the sole judge of the competency and qualifications of its employees, and reserves the right to dis- charge any person in its employ not deemed by it to be satis- factory.

Employment and Discharge. A. Union Security (1) Every person performing work covered by this Agreement who is a member of the Union and in the employment of an Individual Employer on work covered by this Agreement on the effective date of this subsection 3A shall, as a condition of employment or continued employment, remain a member in good standing of the Union in the appropriate Local Union of the Union. Every person covered by this Agreement and employed to perform work covered by this Agreement shall be required, as a condition of employment, to apply for and become a member of and to maintain membership in good standing in the Union in the appropriate Local Union of the Union which has territorial jurisdiction of the area in which such person is performing work on or after the expiration of eight (8) days of employment on such work following the beginning of such employment or the effective date of this revised subsection 3A, whichever is later. Membership in any such Local Union shall be available to any such person on the same terms and conditions generally applicable to other members. If Federal law is hereafter amended to permit a lesser requirement for Union membership or Union membership as a condition of employment than provided in this subsection, the Collective Bargaining Representative of the Employer and the Union will promptly enter into negotiations with regard to such subject.
Employment and Discharge. The parties hereto recognize that, under the laws of the United States, the Union, by virtue of its certification by the National La- bor Relations Board as bargaining agent for all employees of the Employer within the bargaining unit, whether members of the Union or not, and further that, under the laws of the State of Xxxx- da, it is unlawful for the Employer to pay an employee any wages, salary or compensation lower than that agreed upon through this Agreement, so that the benefits of the Agreement are extended by law to non-union as well as Union employees, while the expense of negotiating this Agreement as well as the continuing expense of administering its provisions and of processing grievances hereun- der has been, and will continue to be, borne by the Union. For these reasons, the Employer agrees that all workers shall obtain a clear- ance from the Union before commencing work. For those individu- als that sign an authorization slip to participate in dues checkoff, the procedure required to stop that arrangement will be clearly stat- ed on the authorization slip. The Employer also agrees to recommend to all employees that they become members of the Local Union and maintain such member- ships during the life of this Agreement.
