CUPW - 2021-12-15 - Dues Keep Pace With Pay Increase

Dues Keep Pace With Pay Increase

Share This

Wednesday December 15 2021
2019-2023/322

The CUPW National Constitution sets the basic dues rate for Urban Operations workers at 300% of the maximum hourly rate for the lowest classification within the bargaining unit. RSMC dues have been set at 1.71% of the wage portion received by each member, to a maximum equal to the dues for Urban Operation members.

Some Locals have bylaws for a local assessment over and above the monthly basic dues.

With the current collective agreements, there is a 2% wage increase for the RSMC and Urban Operations bargaining units.

The new monthly deduction for union dues for members of the Urban Operations bargaining unit on February 1, 2022 is $88.83.

For members of the RSMC and Urban Operations, the new monthly deduction for union dues will be collected on pay period 3 (January 23 to February 5, 2022).

Attached is a chart showing the 2022 basic dues rates as well as the exceptions for those Locals with local assessments.

I trust this information will assist in answering members’ questions about the monthly union dues deduction, which members will observe on their pay statements.

 

In solidarity,

Beverly Collins
National Secretary-Treasurer
