Employee Dues

The County is required to make payroll deductions for employee dues and other payments that the County employees voluntarily authorize to be made to the Exclusive Representative and related entities.

• The County will accept employee authorizations for payroll deductions in any form that statistics the requirements of the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act.
• All requests to cancel or change authorizations must be done through the Exclusive Representative, the County cannot make changes.  The Exclusive Representative is responsible for processing a request with the County.
• Once an employee authorizes a payroll deduction for dues, it may be up to a year before the employee can stop that deduction, depending on the agreement with the employee organization.
• The Exclusive Representatives are not required to provide the County individual authorizations.
• The County will rely solely on the information provided by the Exclusive Representative for payroll deductions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The County has no authority for payroll deductions, contacting the Exclusive Representative is the only way to discuss, review, and address payroll deductions for dues. The County then relies on the Exclusive Representative to provide direction for payroll deductions.
