when do union dues increase?

[eastlos]

Ive been a part timer for 3 years and 3 months, when I looked at my paycheck today it shows that my union dues jumped from $22 to $31.

Normally, they go up every time you get a raise. I don't know why yours went up so much, maybe they skipped a week for some reason.

My union dues are set by my local at a certain number of hours pay per month for part timers and a larger number of hours pay (3.5? - the multiple went up recently) for full-timers. Maybe there was a vote authorizing an increase in your local, and you didn't get the memo.

our dues up here went from 40 cents an hour plus 21 dollars a month (for pt) to 1.9% (for all employees) of wage plus 21(diff for ft) dollars

Some one forgot to deduct our dues from this week's check.
Not the first time this has happened.

in which case expect to pay back dues

Dues should be 2 and half times your hourly rate per month. If you make $10 an hour you should pay $25 per month divided by how many weeks that are in that month.

Same here. I heard next week is dues from a steward.

Dues increase anytime the union feels the news. I do believe its suppose to be 2 1/2 times your hourly rate. It might be different for each local though.

Just flies right over your head.....

P.S. to admin: this is a better fit on the general union sub-forum, no?

Our dues are deducted weekly.
