Union Dues Problem

[nystripe96]

I've had my union dues taken out three weeks in a row. Does this mean they won't be taken out again for a while, or should I contact my steward/HR??

I don't know if I'm misunderstanding the question, but you pay your dues weekly.

Where do you pay weekly?

Money is taken out of my paycheck each week.

Did you have to pay for a lost High Value or something? My union dues come out of my check the first paycheck of every month and that's all

I am not a driver, I work preload. Maybe it varies by local union?

Why not ask a fellow employee where you work and see if their dues are weekly.

When you first join the union your initial fees should come out weekly for I don't know 3-4 months or so but once those are paid your dues should come out first paycheck of the month.

Every week for me

Ok it's been $20/week for the past 3 weeks. Before that it was once a month so I guess I'll talk to someone. I've been with the company 10 months

 

[splozi]

10 months? My guess is that you're not making driver's pay.

If you're part time, then $20 per month sounds about right. They're taking out $5.25 from me weekly right now. So there may indeed be a problem.

Weekly .

Weekly. But whose keeping track.
