Related to Exception for Religious Objections

  • Religious Objections Any employee who is a member of a bonafide religion, body, or sect which has historically held conscientious objections to joining or financially supporting public employee organizations shall not be required to join or financially support the organization. Such employee shall, in lieu of periodic dues or agency shop fees, pay sums equal to said amounts to a non-religious, non-labor charitable fund exempt from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, which has been selected by the employee from a list of such funds designated by the parties hereto in a separate agreement. Such payments shall be made by payroll deduction as a condition of continued exemption from the requirements of financial support to the Union and as a condition of continued employment.

  • Religious Objection Any employee who is a member of and adheres to established and traditional tenets or teachings of a bona fide religion, body, or sect which has historically held conscientious objections to joining or financially supporting labor organizations shall not be required to join or financially support the Union as a condition of employment. Such an employee shall, in lieu of dues and fees, pay sums equal to such dues and fees to a non-religious charitable fund. These religious objections and decisions as to which fund will be used must be documented and declared in writing to the Union. Any employee exercising their right of religious objection must provide the Union with a receipt of payment to an appropriate charity on a monthly basis.

  • Religious Objectors Any employee covered hereby who maintains that she/he holds a sincere and bona fide religious belief that conflicts with an obligation to financially support MSEA-SEIU, public employee organizations or labor organizations in general may seek religious objector status by petitioning MSEA-SEIU. Any such employee who is found to hold a sincere and bona fide religious belief that conflicts with an obligation to financially support MSEA-SEIU, public employee organizations or labor organizations in general, shall have the right to refuse to make service fee payments; provided, however, that said right to refuse shall continue only so long as the employee makes contributions at least equal in amount to the service fee to a non-religious charitable organization mutually agreed upon by the employee so refusing and the Union, within ten (10) days after each payday. Part-time employees’ contributions to non-religious charitable organizations shall coincide in amount with the payments of those part-time employees paying the service fee. MSEA-SEIU shall not unreasonably deny the choice of such non-religious charitable organization suggested by the employee. An administrative or legal challenge to a denial of a petition for religious objector status may be filed in an appropriate forum. The State of Maine Office of Employee Relations is not such a forum. Should an employee have a pending written request for religious objector status or a pending administrative or legal challenge regarding their religious objector status, the State will continue to deduct an amount equal to the service fee from the employee’s pay until the request is granted or the challenge is resolved in the employee’s favor, and that amount will be placed by MSEA- SEIU in an interest-bearing escrow account pending resolution of such dispute or request. MSEA-SEIU shall pay for any maintenance fees associated with such escrow accounts. The State shall not be liable for any fees, costs, damages, expenses, or any other form of liability involved with regard to such escrow accounts. If an employee is granted religious objector status, MSEA- SEIU will notify the State of the employee’s religious objector status, and the State will cease automatic service fee deductions. It shall be the sole obligation of MSEA-SEIU to certify to the State the name of any employee who has failed to make timely contributions as a religious objector and has, thus, forfeited religious objector status. Once MSEA-SEIU has certified the employee’s name to the State, the State will commence and continue to automatically deduct the service fee from the employee’s pay as provided in Section 1.

  • Title Objections Seller shall request Escrow Agent to cause to be delivered to Buyer a preliminary title report (the "Preliminary Report") from a title company affiliated with the Escrow Agent (the "Title Company"), showing the status of Seller’s title to the Property, together with complete and legible copies of all documents shown therein as exceptions to title ("Exceptions"). Buyer shall have until the date that is five (5) days after the Title Company delivers the Preliminary Report and Exceptions to Buyer within which to give notice in writing to Seller of any objection to such title or to any liens or encumbrances affecting the Property. Within five (5) days after receipt of such notice from Buyer, Seller shall give Buyer written notice of whether it is willing and able to remove the objected-to Exceptions. Without the need for objection by Buyer, Seller shall, with respect to liens and encumbrances that can be satisfied and released by the payment of money, eliminate such exceptions to title on or before Closing. Within five (5) days after receipt of such notice from Seller (the "Title Contingency Date"), Buyer shall elect whether to: (i) purchase the Property subject to those objected-to Exceptions which Seller is not willing or able to remove; or (ii) terminate this Agreement. If Buyer fails to give Seller notice of Buyer’s election, then such inaction shall be deemed to be Buyer’s election to terminate this Agreement. On or before the Closing Date (defined below), Seller shall remove all Exceptions to which Buyer objects and which Seller agrees, or is deemed to have agreed, Seller is willing and able to remove. All remaining Exceptions set forth in the Preliminary Report and those Exceptions caused by or agreed to by Buyer shall be deemed "Permitted Exceptions."

If objections are not cured within the Cure Period, Buyer may, by delivering notice to Seller within 5 days after the end of the Cure Period: (i) terminate this contract and the xxxxxxx money will be refunded to Buyer; or (ii) waive the objections. If Buyer does not terminate within the time required, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived the objections.
