CHECK OFF OF ASSOCIATION DUES. During the term of this Agreement, and to the extent the laws of the State of Michigan permit, and as provided in this Article, the University will deduct current Association dues from the pay, if any, of each employee who voluntarily executes and delivers the deduction authorization form provided by the Association. In the event the union utilizes electronic signatures for authorization in the future, the University will accept the electronic signatures, provided that the union is able to provide means for verification of the electronic signature in a manner that is consistent with the applicable law. Previously submitted authorizations shall remain effective. 57A. Upon receiving written confirmation from the Association that an employee has effectively revoked their Voluntary Authorization for Deduction of Association Dues, the University will discontinue deducting dues from the employee’s pay as soon as practicable. The Union shall endeavor to deliver written notice of an effective revocation of Voluntary Authorization for Deduction for Association Dues within five (5) business days of receipt from the employee. If the Association fails to deliver written notice within this timeframe, resulting in an unauthorized payroll deduction(s) by the University Payroll Office, the Association agrees that it will be solely responsible for reimbursing the affected employee for the unauthorized payroll deduction(s). Payroll deductions shall terminate when a revocation has been delivered to the University Payroll Office at least 30 days prior to the last payday of the calendar month. The parties agree it is the sole responsibility of the Association to make certain its Voluntary Authorization for Deduction of Association dues complies with applicable laws.
