Local Postal Worker Files Federal Charge Against Postal Service for Failure to Process Union Resignation<\/a><\/h2>\n

Human resources representative’s failure to process worker’s request to refrain from union dues payments forces him to pay union dues for another year<\/h3>\n

Hampden, ME (July 24, 2013)<\/b> \u2013 A local United States Postal Service (USPS) worker has filed a federal charge against the agency for failing to timely process his request to refrain from union membership and dues payments, thus forcing him to pay union dues for another year.<\/p>\n

Brett Johnson of Holden, Maine, filed the charge with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) Monday with free legal assistance from National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation staff attorneys.<\/p>\n

On April 30, 2003, Johnson joined the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) union and signed a dues deduction authorization form. Dues deduction authorizations are used by union officials to automatically withhold dues from employee paychecks.<\/p>\n

On April 10, 2013, Johnson sent a letter to the NALC union resigning his membership and refraining from union dues payments. Johnson hand-delivered the same letter to his postal service human resources representative the following day.<\/p>\n

Postal workers have the right to refrain from union membership and union dues payments. However, according to the union\u2019s monopoly bargaining agreement, Johnson has only a ten day period starting on April 10 each year when he can revoke his union dues deduction authorization.<\/p>\n
