| Member fee |
|
The member fee for 2008 for members of the Specialists
in the Youth and Sports Sector is 1.25 % of your gross income.
The member fee is paid from your gross income subject
to withholding-tax, which includes your gross salary, holiday compensation,
holiday pay and fringe benefits (e.g. lunch benefit, company car and phone
benefit) as well as from the benefits (including the earnings-related
unemployment allowance, training allowance,
job alternation compensation and labour market support) paid by the
Unemployment Fund for Higher Educated Employees.
The normal procedure for paying the member fee is to
pay it once monthly. If you wish to deviate from this procedure, the issue must
be discussed and agreed upon with the member secretaries.
If you would like your employer to collect the member
fee automatically from your salary, you can print out the power of attorney
from the following link:  Authorisation for the employer (pdf)
The power of attorney for new members will be sent to
you by the office upon your acceptance as a member of the organisation.
If you apply for and receive benefits from the
Unemployment Fund for Higher Educated Employees, your member fee will be
re-calculated by the Fund. You can pay your member fee from the benefits paid
by the Fund through the use of a bank giro or by providing the Unemployment
Fund with a power of attorney to handle the fee on your behalf. |
