Dues Rate For Newly Organized Groups

Many workers organizing a union with OPEIU Local 32 ask about what the dues rate is for membership. This is a great question!

Effective November 2023, members at all newly organized workplaces of Local 32 will have dues deducted on a percentage basis at the rate of 1.2% of base pay, with a cap of $50/month. Because these dues are based on base pay, dues are not applied to overtime pay or bonuses.

It is also important to remember that no member at any newly organized workplace will pay any dues until a first collective bargaining agreement is voted upon and ratified by them and their coworkers!
