According
to the Constitution and By laws governing the AFA , a union member
or service fee payer who fails to pay dues/fees in a timely manner
runs the risk of their employment being terminated. If you
receive a letter from AFA concerning late dues, please take care of
this immediately. If you feel there is a discrepancy please
contact AFA membership at 1-800-424-2401
Ext. 3.
As a reminder, it is a flight
attendants responsibility to ensure that his/her union dues and fees
are paid in a timely manner. As of the ratification of the 2005
contract, all flight attendants are required to pay a monthly fee as
a contribution for the administration of the Agreement and for
representation.
Council 57 suggests that you review each and every pay check
to ensure your dues are deducted from your pay if you are on
payroll deduction. If you do not receive a pay check for a
pay period, then union dues have not been deducted and AFA
will send you a bill. Also, union dues are the last item to
be deducted from you pay. If you paycheck falls to $0,
please ensure that the full $21.50 has been deducted for
union dues.
If you pay your dues by mail, you must mail your payment
each month. Also, if you are on a promissory note (payment
plan), in order to remain in good standing, you must make a
payment every month. Terms of your payments can be found on
your promissory agreement.
If you are out of work for any reason (OJI, Medical,
Voluntary leave, etc.), you are required by AFA to pay dues
for the first ninety days of your leave. Again, AFA will
send you a bill if dues are not collected by the company.
You have the option of mailing your payment in or you can
pay your dues online at www.afanet.org and follow the pay
your dues online link on the left side of the page.
