Who is eligible for this membership?

Any LP who is part of the bargaining unit for which the Association is the bargaining agent for shall be eligible for Regular Membership in the Association, provided such member has not been seconded outside the Law Group for a period of more than 3 months, and is not occupying a position that is excluded from representation.

Membership is not automatic on account of union dues being automatically deducted from your pay. An LP who is part of the bargaining unit and who wishes to benefit from the various individualized services (see benefits below) is required to complete and sign a Regular Membership form, following which a membership number will be issued.

Benefits of a Regular Membership

  • Nominating and voting for Governing Council members;
  • Running for office as a member of our Governing Council;

Union Dues

Union dues are automatically deducted by the Employer from the pay of all LPs who are part of the bargaining unit in accordance with the Directive on Union Dues, AJC collective agreement and AJC Bylaws.

In accordance with the Public Service Labour Relations Act, the act of paying dues does not simply translate into automatic membership.
