How will supervisors and employees know how much the fee will be?
According to proposed regulations by the Public Employee Relations Board (PERB), the state agency charged with administering the agency fee law, unions must give employees notice of the fee to be charged. The university has provided the home addresses of bargaining unit members through a third-party mailing house. This method will protect employees who have specifically blocked release of their home address to an exclusive representative. The university may also provide the union with an employee’s campus or check address. Unions will then be able to notify employees regarding agency fee amounts.
