[QUOTE="BrownShark2, post: 265704"] PT, the issue of union dues being taken out of seasonal employees is matter of an agreement between the company and the local rider in the area. While you are not a part of the Union, as a monetary arrangement with the local involved, the dues are nothing more than a price UPS pays to hire off the street workers. You unfortunately have to pay that price. Your dues are NOT going into any pension funds. If you are hired pernamently, then you would be subject to full initiation dues with NO credit for deductions during the peak season. Of course, not all locals have the same agreement with the company and the area your in may be a bit differently. Here for example, Christmas helpers have union dues deducted and they are not permanent employees nor do they get the benefit of Union representation if an issue arrose, again, the dues are only a price paid for the company to hire off the street. Hope this helps. Peace. [/QUOTE]
