If you are taking a leave of absence, please let your building representative know. You are still required to pay dues.
The purpose of this communication is to clarify the requirements for membership dues obligation while a member is on official leave of absence (LOA).
According to the “Local Association Operations Enrollment Manual” provided by OEA, a member on an official leave of absence, which is approved by the employer, is not free of the dues obligation while on leave. However, should the duration of the leave of absence be longer than one-half of the school year, the member may be eligible for a dues reduction. What this means to you - if you go on unpaid leave you are still responsible for paying your dues.
- If you work and/or use sick leave half the year or less, you will pay half-time dues
- If you work and/or use sick leave more than half the year, you will pay full-time dues
- If you work and/or use sick leave half the year or less, you will pay quarter-time dues
- If you work and/or use sick leave more than half the year, you will pay half-time dues
Members who are on unpaid LOA for the entire school year or not receiving a paycheck during the dues deduction pay period (November – June) will be billed for their dues obligation and be asked to remit dues payment to the UAEA Treasurer. These members will be noted as “cash payers” and make checks payable to the “Upper Arlington Education Association”. Arrangements for submitting dues on a scheduled plan throughout the course of the year can be made with the UAEA Treasurer.
If a staff member goes on unpaid LOA during the dues deduction pay period (November – June) the remaining balance will be deducted from the member’s final paycheck as provided by the Negotiated Contract, Section 11.5 (5) “If staff members end their employment or goes on unpaid leaves of absence before all installments have been deducted, the unpaid balance will be deducted from their final payroll check and remitted to the Association Treasurer as provided below.”
All dues must be collected in full by the last dues deduction in June of the school year.
Only dues paying members are eligible for rights, privileges and benefits provided with unified dues. This includes voting in elections, ratifying negotiated contracts, and eligibility for Educators Employment Liability Insurance Coverage and the Attorney Referral Program.
