DUES CHECK-OFF A. Upon the presentation by the Union of a list of the individual employees covered by this Agreement for each of whom the Union certifies to have on file a written authorization for dues deduction or service fee deduction duly executed by the employee, the Union shall be entitled to have the dues or service fees deducted from their paychecks on a bi-weekly basis. Such authorization shall be non-revocable and automatically renewed from year to year. B. The amounts to be deducted shall be certified to the Employer by the Treasurer of the Union. Whenever the Union notifies the Employer to begin deducting the dues of any bargaining unit employee, said deductions shall begin no later than the second paycheck following the Union's notification. If the Employer fails to make the deduction within this period, the Union will notify the Employer who shall immediately correct the error. Aggregate deductions of all employees shall be remitted at least monthly to the Union along with an itemized statement. C. The Employer or its agents or representatives shall not encourage or discourage membership in the Union by discriminating in hiring, tenure, wages, hours, or conditions of employment. The Union, its agents, representatives and persons who work for it shall not restrain, coerce, or interfere with employee rights. D. The Union shall indemnify and hold the Employer harmless against any and all claims, demands, suits, or any other forms of liability that shall arise out of or by reason of action taken or not taken by the Employer for the purposes of complying with any list, notice, form, card, or assignment furnished under this Article. E. When a bargaining unit employee returns to work from a non-pay status, and upon appropriate certification from the Union that the employee owes back dues to the Union, the Employer shall deduct from the employee's next paycheck the full amount of back dues owed.
UNION DUES CHECK-OFF On a weekly basis the Employer agrees to deduct uniform dues and initiation fees from the paycheck of those covered employees whose individual written unrevoked authorizations are on file with the Employer and to transmit the amounts so deducted to the Union monthly. Said deduction authorizations shall be in such form as to conform with Section 302(c) of the Labor Management Relations Act of 1947.
