The Alaska State Employees Association (ASEA)/AFSCME Local 52 is the designated union for over 8,000 state employees in Alaska, along with some local government employees.
For years, public employees in Alaska have been forced to pay union dues or fees as a condition of employment, allowing unions like ASEA to take their members for granted. However, because of the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision in Janus v. AFSCME (2018), public employees can no longer be required to financially support a labor union against their will.
法院裁定强制缴纳会费的规定侵犯了工人根据《第一修正案》享有的言论自由和结社自由权利，并指出公职人员有权自主决定是否缴纳工会会费。
常见问题解答
您将在数周内收到工会对您请求的确认通知。
在大多数情况下，工会会费会自动从员工薪资中扣除。请留意您的薪资单，确保会费扣除已停止。若提交退出申请后，扣除行为仍持续数个薪资周期，请联系工会。
最后，请记住：
Opting out is your constitutional right. However, unions like ASEA sometimes place restrictions on when they will accept opt-out requests. If the union refuses to immediately cancel dues deductions from your pay, ask them to provide you with written documentation and contact us for assistance.
According to its website, ASEA deducts 1% to 1.25% of members’ salary.
Yes. ASEA has arranged to be the “exclusive representative” of its bargaining units, meaning it is impossible for workers to get out of the terms of the contract, even if they cease paying dues.
In exchange for the monopoly on this particular service, ASEA is legally obligated to represent all employees in the workplace, including those who choose not to join the union as members.
工会与贵公司协商达成的集体谈判协议将继续规定您的雇佣条款与条件，工会也将继续在申诉、合同执行、纪律协助或其他受集体谈判协议管辖的程序中代表您的权益。
No. Under state law, a union contract is binding on all employees in a bargaining unit, regardless of whether they are technically union “members.” Your compensation, health benefits, retirement, and anything else governed by the collective bargaining agreement will remain unchanged if you opt out of ASEA.
尽管合同条款仍将规范您的雇佣关系，但工会官员通常禁止非会员参与工会内部事务，例如出席工会会议、选举工会干部或参与合同批准投票。您也将失去享受任何"会员专享"福利的资格，包括额外保险折扣、奖学金计划或工会与企业达成的合作优惠。您可能不再收到工会通讯或其他类似出版物。
人们不愿支持工会的原因多种多样。有人纯粹认为工会提供的服务不值所收会费；也有人觉得工会的千篇一律议程无法满足自身需求——可能是刚入行的新人，或是所专长领域未被纳入谈判范畴，又或是认为自身工作成效未获相应回报。还有人痛恨工会纵容并庇护表现不佳的员工。 许多人对工会利用会费推动党派议程、候选人及意识形态的政治活动深恶痛绝。还有人认为工会官员腐败且对会员缺乏问责。
代表公职人员的工会不受常规消费者保护法或反垄断法的约束，因此滥用职权现象屡见不鲜。工会可以随意收取会费，将会费用于任何用途。 通常情况下，工会无需向会员披露会费支出明细。他们可未经协商或告知便代表员工发声，在维护部分会员利益的同时损害其他会员权益。工会甚至能阻止员工从其他渠道获取职场援助。他们不受任何优质服务义务约束，且几乎无需通过选举获得被代表者的认可，即可持续担任独家代表。
有时人们会基于信仰对工会支出提出异议。若想了解主要公共工会支出与常见信仰观点的关联，请点击此处。
