The MTS membership fees and the Local Association fees shall be deducted from every teacher who has not given written notice to the Division within twenty (20) days of the start of the current school year that he/she is not a member of the MTS or the Local Association.
In consideration of the Division making the compulsory check-off of Association dues as herein provided, the Association agrees to and does hereby indemnify and save the Division harmless for all claims, demands, actions and the proceeding of any kind from all costs which may arise or be taken against the Division making the compulsory check-off of Association dues provided for in this Article.
The deduction for the MTS fees will be made in ten equal monthly instalments commencing with the September cheque, according to the scale of fees established by the Manitoba Teachers' Society. Each monthly instalment shall be remitted to the Manitoba Teachers' Society.
The deduction for local Association fees will be made in October of the current school year, or the month following employment, prorated for the balance of the year. If employment is terminated during a school year, the onus is on the teacher to make the necessary arrangements with the Association for rebates of deductions.
The Association shall also notify the Secretary-Treasurer as to the person on the Executive of the Association to whom the sum of dues are to be remitted.
