Exoneration Request
We are going to begin following the guidelines set up in the TWU Constitution pertaining to members on a Leave of Absence.
In accordance with the TWU Constitution, Article XVII, Section 4 (a):
(a) “Any member who is prevented by illness, injury, or lay-off from earning any wages in a calendar month shall be excused from paying dues for such month and such nonpayment shall not affect his good standing. For the purpose of this paragraph the work “Wages” shall be construed to include any monetary compensation, totaling seventy-five (75%) percent or more of the member’s regular monthly income from his/her employment, payable to an ill or injured worker; under applicable law, and/or pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement. In order to be excused, such member shall be required to file with his/her Local Financial Secretary-Treasurer a request for exoneration on the official form as supplied by the International Secretary-Treasurer.
The exoneration shall not be effective unless and until approved and countersigned by the Local Financial Secretary-Treasurer, and approved by the Local Executive Board…”
