| Formula Dues | 2.4 x Hourly Rate of Pay x Number of Hours Worked per Week ÷ 40 + 15.99 = Monthly Rate x Months worked per year ÷ Number of Payroll Deductions = Amount per Payroll Deduction (+ COPE Payroll Deduction if applicable) |
| Percentage Dues |
2.1% x Gross Wages up to 40 hours per week. (+ COPE Payroll Deduction if applicable) |
Please make note that all members are required, per the SEIU International Bylaws, to pay, at the very least, a minimum dues per month regardless if they are paying on a percentage basis or the formula workup through Local 284.
Minimum dues rate is as follows: Employees working 14+ hrs per week with their dues rate as calculated above totaling less than the minimum rate set shall pay $25 per month or $12.50 bi-weekly. Employees working less than 14 hrs per week with their dues rate as calculated above totaling less than the minimum rate set shall pay $15 per month or $7.50 bi-weekly.
Maximum dues amount is $75 per month**.
**PLEASE NOTE: There are some Employers where members work more months with fewer payroll deductions (example: 12 months with 10 payroll deductions). In their case, they will pay more than the $75 per month but it will calculate to no more than the $75 cap for the number of months actually worked.
