Dues Structure

Your dues dollars work for you by funding programs and services that benefit you, your Chapter, and all CSEA classified employees. There are two types of CSEA dues that members pay.

Association Dues — Joining the largest union for classified school employees in the United States has advantages. To enjoy these benefits, you need to join by signing the membership application form. Dues are calculated at 1.5% of your monthly salary, and capped once your dues reach $47.25 per month (salary of $3250 per month). Dues are capped for all active members at $472.50 per year (tenthly). CSEA dues are one of the most affordable union dues structures in California.

Chapter Dues — To join Chapter 262, you pay $1 per month for 10 months to enjoy the privileges and benefits of being a Chapter member, such as voting on the bargaining agreement, running for Chapter Offices, voting for Chapter Officers, participating on college Governance Committees as a CSEA 262 representative, and more. Your Chapter dues go into the annual chapter budget for activities such as Classified School Employees Week and expenses such as the Chapter web site, and sponsoring social events.

For comparison, Mt. SAC’s Faculty Association members pay more than TWICE our CSEA monthly dues. Full-time faculty are paying well over $100 per month for union membership.
