DUES CHECK-OFF. The Union, on behalf of all employees within the bargaining unit, authorizes the University to deduct and pay out of the wages and or salary due to the employees, the appropriate initiation fees, union dues and assessments, as established by the Union. It is understood that dues and assessments will be either a flat dollar amount or a percentage of salary, and that the University will not deduct initiation fees for employees with an existing employee number. Employees hired for the first time in the bargaining unit will be deducted the initiation fee. The deduction methods set out in this article are subject to the Union Constitution. 3.01 It is recognized that some employees’ deductions may be missed on their first payroll due to payroll deadlines. The University will make every effort to minimize this; however, the University will not be held responsible if some dues are missed in these circumstances. The Union will be provided the required information to recover missed dues directly from employees (see Article 3.03 and 3.06c). The parties agree to monitor the initial implementation of this method and if appropriate to consult on practical alternatives if there are serious problems. All current employees as of the date of certification (June 1, 1999) will be deemed union members unless they opt out of union membership by written notice to the Union. The employees who opt out of the Union will have an amount equal to dues deducted and remitted to the Union. All new employees will be members of the Union.
