Note: The annual salary amounts above exclude additional salary factors.
Dues and Agency Shop Fee amounts for part-time, annual salaried employees are calculated on their part-time percentage.
Dues and Agency Shop Fees for employees who receive a raise, increment or longevity pay that is effective after January 1, 2005 will remain at the same amount for calendar year 2005.
Agency Actions
Notify affected employees.
Authorized CSEA Dues and Agency Shop Fee amounts are not adjusted if an employee receives a salary increase. However, agencies must adjust the Dues or Agency Shop Fee amount when an employee's percentage of time worked changes (i.e. from part-time to full-time, or vice-versa) or an employee goes on Sick Leave at half pay.
