What are the monthly dues paid by each union member?
As of July 2002, Teamster members earning $11.00/hour or more, except flight attendants and pilots pay monthly dues of 2.5 times their hourly rate. Teamsters without the right to strike, mostly public employees, pay monthly dues at 2.25 times their hourly rate. Members who earn less than $11.00 an hour pay monthly dues at 2 times their hourly rate. Statistics show that union members recoup well above this amount in the collective bargaining process.
