Membership Authorization

I request and voluntarily accept membership in SEIU Healthcare Illinois & Indiana and its successors or assigns (collectively “HCII”). This means I will receive the benefits and abide by the obligations of membership set forth in both HCII’s and the Service Employees International Union’s (“SEIU”) Constitutions and Bylaws. I authorize HCII to act as my representative in collective bargaining over wages, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment with my employer, and as my exclusive representative where authorized by law. My membership shall be continuous, unless I resign my membership by providing notice to HCII via U.S. mail (or other method if permitted by HCII’s policies). I know that union membership is voluntary and is not a condition of my employment, and that I can decline to join without reprisal. I acknowledge my right to be or remain a nonmember and my right to object to paying for, and to receive a reduction in, dues for HCII activities not germane to its bargaining agent duties.*

*Upon my request, HCII will provide me with sufficient information to make an intelligent decision whether to object and will apprise me of any internal HCII procedures that I must follow to file an objection. While the reduction in dues for nonmembers who object to paying for HCII activities not germane to its bargaining agent duties varies each year, over the past five years such reduction of dues has been between approximately 15% and 25%.

Dues Deduction / Checkoff Authorization & Agreement

I voluntarily authorize and direct my employer to deduct from my earnings and to pay to SEIU Healthcare Illinois & Indiana and its successors or assigns (collectively “HCII”), and as directed by HCII, an amount equal to HCII’s regular dues, assessments, or fees. This authorization and agreement shall remain in effect unless I revoke it by sending written notice to HCII via U.S. mail (or other method if permitted by HCII’s policies) within 30 days before or after (1) the annual anniversary date of this authorization and agreement or (2) the termination of the applicable collective bargaining agreement between my employer and HCII (my “window periods”). This authorization will renew automatically from year to year even if I have resigned my membership, unless I revoke it during one of my window periods and as required by HCII’s policies.

HCII is authorized to deposit this authorization with my current Employer(s) and with any other Employer(s) under contract with SEIU in the event I change Employers or obtain additional employment. This authorization will remain effective if my employment with the Employer is terminated and I am later re-employed by the Employer.

This authorization and agreement is voluntary and is not a condition of my employment, and I can decline to agree to it without reprisal. I understand that all members benefit from everyone’s commitments because they help to build a strong union that is able to plan for the future.

Contributions or gifts to HCII are not tax deductible as charitable contributions.

I further authorize my employer to release to HCII personal and other information concerning me.
