ART. X, SEC. 3<br />
(i) dues for members employed in an industry in<br />
which there is a legal right to strike, other than members<br />
employed as flight attendants or pilots in the<br />
airline industry, shall be increased by one-half times the<br />
hourly earnings rate; thereby establishing a minimum<br />
dues rate of two and one-half (2.5) times the hourly earnings<br />
rate;<br />
(ii) dues for all members employed in the public sector<br />
who are not entitled legally to strike shall<br />
be increased by one-quarter times the hourly earnings<br />
rate; thereby establishing a minimum dues rate of two<br />
and one-quarter (2.25) times the hourly earnings rate;<br />
(iii) dues for members employed as flight attendants<br />
shall be increased to achieve minimum dues of 1.125<br />
times the hourly flight pay at base rate; and<br />
(iv) dues for members employed as airline pilots shall<br />
be increased to achieve minimum dues of 1.56% of the<br />
monthly guaranteed salary.<br />
All future dues adjustments shall be calculated based<br />
upon the member’s hourly earnings rate, flight pay at<br />
base rate, or monthly guaranteed salary. The dues rates<br />
shall be adjusted in order to maintain a minimum dues<br />
rate based upon the formulas set forth above. Dues shall<br />
be adjusted whenever an increase in hourly earnings,<br />
flight pay at base rate, or monthly guaranteed salary is<br />
provided in a collective bargaining agreement, to<br />
become effective the first day of the second calendar<br />
month following the month in which the increase is<br />
implemented. If a contractual wage increase is not<br />
implemented on the date provided in the collective bargaining<br />
agreement but is subsequently implemented on a<br />
retroactive basis, any resulting dues increase shall be<br />
implemented as provided above, but shall be effective<br />
