Your tax-deductible union dues pay for all Union work. Dues support collective bargaining, strike pay, defending the contract through the grievance and arbitration process, communications, member training, and campaigns.

Dues are deducted automatically from your paycheque by your employer and then sent to PSAC, our national union. PSAC returns a portion of those dues to YEU, and YEU remits a portion to each of our Locals based on their size. 

Financial statements are presented to the membership at each level of the organization. The membership votes to approve or reject a proposed budget at Local AGMs and at YEU Triennial Convention.

Come out to your Local meetings and see how it works!
