- If the member is on approved STD (short term disability)
- The first 17 weeks of Maternity Leave.

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.**
In Solidarity,
Abdi Hagi Yusuf,
Secretary-Treasurer,
CUPW Toronto Local.
