FOP SECURITY. Section 3.1 The Employer agrees to deduct FOP membership dues, fees, and assessments in accordance with this Article for all employees eligible for the bargaining unit. Section 3.2 The Employer agrees to deduct FOP membership dues once each pay period, twice a month, from the pay of any eligible employee in the bargaining unit upon receiving written authorization signed individually and voluntarily by the employee. The signed payroll deduction form must be presented to the Employer by the employee or his/her designee. Upon receipt of the proper authorization, the Employer will deduct FOP dues from the payroll check for the next pay period in which dues are normally deducted following the pay period in which the authorization was received by the Employer. Section 3.3 The parties agree that the Employer assumes no obligations, financial or otherwise, arising out of the provisions of this Article regarding the deduction of FOP dues, fees, and/or assessments. The FOP hereby agrees that it will indemnify and hold the Employer harmless from any claims, actions or proceedings by any employee arising from deduction made by the Employer pursuant to this Article. Section 3.4 The Employer shall be relieved from making such individual “check-off” deductions upon an employee’s: (1) termination of employment; (2) transfer to a job other than one covered by the bargaining unit; (3) layoff from work; (4) an unpaid leave of absence; (5) revocation of the check-off authorization; or (6) resignation by the employee from the FOP. Section 3.5 The Employer shall not be obligated to make dues deductions from any employee who, during any pay periods involved, shall have failed to receive sufficient wages to make all legally required deductions in addition to the deduction of FOP dues. Section 3.6 The parties agree that neither the employees nor the FOP shall have a claim against the Employer for errors in the processing of deductions, unless a claim or error is made to the Employer in writing within sixty (60) days after the date of such an error is claimed to have occurred. If it is found that an error was made, it will be corrected at the next pay period that the FOP dues deduction would normally be made by deducting the proper amount. Section 3.7 The rate of which dues are to be deducted shall be certified to the Employer or designee by the FOP during January of each year. One (1) month advance notice must be given the Employer or designee prior to making any changes in an individual’s dues deduction. Section 3.8 Except as otherwise provided herein, each eligible employee’s written authorization for dues deduction shall be honored by the Employer for the duration of this Agreement or until such employee submits a written revocation of the dues deduction authorization to the Employer or designee.
