The Board agrees to automatic payroll deduction, as a condition of employment, of a fair share fee amount as designated by the Association from all bargaining unit members who elect not to become members of the Association, or who elect not to remain members. 2. The Treasurer of the Board shall, upon notification from the Association that a member has terminated membership, commence the check-off of the fair share fee with respect to the former member, and the amount of the fee yet to be deducted shall be the annual membership dues less the amount previously paid through payroll deduction. 3. Payroll deduction of such fair share fee shall commence with the first payroll on or after January 15th of each school year. 4. Dues rates and fair share fee rates shall be transmitted by the Association to the Treasurer of the Board for the purpose of determining amounts to be payroll deducted, and the Board agrees to promptly transmit all amounts deducted to the Association. 5. The Board further agrees to accompany each such transmittal with a list of names of bargaining unit members for whom all such deductions were made, the period covered, and the amounts deducted for each. 6. Upon timely demand, non-members may appeal to the Association the payment of the fair share fee pursuant to the internal rebate procedure adopted by the Association, or such non-members may submit each appeal as provided by law. 7. The amount to be deducted from the pay of all non-Association members shall be the total dues as paid by members of the Association, and such deductions shall continue through the remaining number of payroll periods over which Association membership dues are deducted. 8.

The Board shall give a ten (10) day written notice of any claim or action filed against the employer by a non-member for which indemnification may be claimed; b. The Association shall reserve the right to designate counsel to represent and defend the employer; c. The Board agrees to 1) give full and complete cooperation and assistance to the Association and its counsel at all levels of the proceeding, 2) permit the Association or its affiliates to intervene as a party if it so desires, and/or 3) not oppose the Association or its affiliates’ application to file an amicus curiae brief in the action; d. The action brought against the Board must be a direct consequence of the Board’s good faith compliance with the fair share fee provision of the collective bargaining Agreement herein; however, there shall be no indemnification of the Board if the Board intentionally or willfully fails to apply (except due to court order) or misapplies such fair share fee provision herein. 9. The above fair share fee provisions shall be an exclusive right of the Association not granted to any other employee organization seeking to represent employees in the bargaining unit represented by the Association. 10.

• Fair Share A. Each bargaining unit member who, as of October 1, fall semester and/or March 1, spring semester, or as a result of late start courses, meets the conditions of Association membership defined in Article I, 1.1 shall, as a condition of employment, join the Adjunct Faculty Association or pay a fair share fee to the Association equivalent to the amount of dues uniformly required of members of the Association, including local, state and national dues. Following the fifth pay period of the Fall and Spring semesters (Payrolls 5 and 15), the Administration will provide the Association a list of all adjunct and part-time faculty who have received teaching assignments. The Association will prepare a list of adjunct and part-time faculty to be given to the College who have either elected to have full (or local only) union dues and fair share fees deducted from their pay.

The Employer gives full and complete cooperation to the Association and its counsel in securing and giving evidence, obtaining witnesses and making relevant information available at both trial and all appellate levels. E. The Association agrees that in any action so defended, it will indemnify and hold harmless the Employer from any liability for damages and costs imposed by a final judgment of a court or administrative agency as a direct consequence of the Employer’s non-negligent compliance with this Article. It is expressly understood that this hold harmless provision will not apply to any claim, demand, suit or other form of liability which may arise as a result of any type of willful misconduct by the Board or the Board’s imperfect execution of the obligations imposed upon it by this Article. F. The Association shall certify to the Board the amount of the annual fair share fee, not to exceed the dues uniformly required of members of the Association. The Association acknowledges its obligation to provide non-members with the basis for the calculation of the fair share fee.

H. Non-members who object to the amount of the fair share fee have the right to file objections with the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board.
