Common use of BUSINESS Section A: Payroll Deductions Clause in Contracts

BUSINESS Section A: Payroll Deductions. 1. Upon written authorization of any certificated employee within the bargaining unit, the District shall deduct from the pay of such employee the monthly amount of dues required for membership in the Association, as certified by the Association, and transmit said dues to the treasurer of the Association according to current practice, unless otherwise advised by the Association. The District shall be held harmless, including reasonable attorney fees, for compliance with this provision. 2. The Association shall provide an automatic payroll authorization form to each certificated employee. The certificated employee shall sign and deliver such authorization to the Association during the enrollment period at the beginning of the school year. Once a certificated employee has signed the automatic payroll authorization form, dues deductions shall be on a continuous basis thereafter (subject to the provisions of Paragraph 4). 3. The Association shall submit the automatic payroll authorization to the District payroll office for processing. A table of prorated annual dues and assessments shall be supplied to the District payroll office by the Association to determine monthly dues deductions. 4. The automatic payroll authorization forms clearly state that it is understood by the certificated employee signing the authorization that continuation of dues deductions until the end of the due period on August 31 of each year is a binding condition for automatic payroll authorization. Revocation of such authorization shall be made in writing to the Association between the beginning of the school year and September 30 and shall become effective at that time. The Association shall submit notice of revocation to the District payroll office.
