You can create the table of unions in either of the following ways:
Create a numbering system that is independent of the union numbers, using the Local number as the union name or part of the union name. For example:
Union # |
Union Name |
1 |
Local 27 |
2 |
Local 194 |
3 |
Local 689 |
Simply use the union numbers. If you have employees who work out of different locals for the same union, enter each local as a separate union. This enables you to create reports for each local. In this example, a large electrical contractor has employees working out of several National Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (NBEW) locals:
Union # |
Union Name |
27 |
NBEW Local 27 |
194 |
NBEW Local 194 |
689 |
NBEW Local 689 |
Important! When union benefits change, you must adjust the system’s calculations in 5-3-1 Payroll Calculations and 5-3-4 Paygroups.
