Dues Refund Policy

Feb 10, 2023

To our Members,

RE: Local Union’s Refund Policy

As of March 1, 2023, the Local Union requires all Members to submit their Dues Refund requests, in order to start the refund process. This includes any monthly over-payments remitted to the Union.

Please review The Local Union’s policy to Refund Union Dues:

1) Members who work forty (40) hours or less in a calendar month can request their dues to be refunded, by providing proof of their hours. Proof of hours can be:

a) Pay-stubs for the full month (1st to the 31st), or

b) Verification of hours worked for the month provided by your Payroll Department

2) Please send all refund request(s) to Michelle Kirouac by email, michelle@usw1-2017.ca, fax (250) 563-0274, or mail to USW 1-2017 – 100 1777 3rd Ave, Prince George, BC V2L 3G7.

3) Dues Refund Requests will be processed at the end each month, for the requested month and will be issued upon reconciliation of dues payments.

Please call Michelle at (250) 563-7771, if you have any questions.

Fraternally yours,
