Sisters/Brothers:
The National Constitution allows dues waivers when the member is off work and the requested dues waiver is approved as per the National Constitution. In order to be eligible, you must be a member in good standing. Membership is a condition of employment (4.07 of the Collective Agreement). For RAND members, please note that upon becoming a member, the union dues waiver is not retroactive.
There are four instances when the National Office will not waive your dues:
INFORMATION REQUIRED WHEN YOU SUBMIT YOUR DUES WAIVER REQUEST:
It is the responsibility of the member to send her/his request to waive her/his union dues to the Secretary-Treasurer. If you do not waive your dues, and you return to work, you will be double-deducted union dues to recover the dues arrears.
**The Toronto Local does not have a dues assessment, therefore, if you are being deducted more than $90.61, please see your Shop Steward or feel free to contact me.**

Dear Postal Workers,
On April 28th, we observe the National Day of Mourning to honour those who have lost their lives or suffered in the workplace. This day also serves as a call to action for stricter safety standards. Let’s stand in solidarity with our fellow Postal Workers, advocating for the vital changes our workplaces need and resisting intimidation from management.
