Quote:I don't know about all unions, but what we pay (once a week) is equal to our hourly wage...If one makes $22.37 per hour, that is his union dues per week...If one makes $13.45 per hour, he pays $13.45 a week Union dues...Union dues is also tax deductible. Some unions have other funds such as strike funds that union employees pay for, but it's a very small percentage...For me, the Union is a good deal...If I had to pay what the company employees pay for health insurance rather than the Union negotiated payment, I would have to cut something somewhere else
