Q: When on a leave coordinating vacation for pay, will dues and insurance premiums be paid automatically instead of like now, where we have to write a check or remember to go online and make payments?
As long as a Flight Attendant is coordinating using enough sick leave or vacation to cover their insurance and dues, both deductions will be taken out of the Flight Attendant’s paycheck. If not, the Flight Attendant will have to pay insurance or dues separately. Dues are the last thing they take out of someone’s check, so many times if they are only coordinating minimum, that isn’t enough to cover their dues, and that is when they must pay the dues amount separately.
