Hired after Ratification. Membership in or financial support of the Union is not a required condition of continued employment. Bargaining unit members hired after the date of ratification will have thirty days from their first day of work to choose whether or not to join the Union. Bargaining unit members must provide written notice by mail or electronically of their intention. Such notice must be sent electronically or postmarked within 30 days of employment with a copy furnished to Human Resources. Any bargaining unit member hired after ratification who voluntarily joins the Union or fails to notify the Union of their intention, shall be required, as a condition of continued employment, either to become a member of OFNHP or make a monthly fair share payment, in accordance with the OFNHP membership agreement.
