MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
A. This Agreement is the result of collective negotiations between the Board and the Association which have been conducted under requirements and directives of statute law. The provisions of this Agreement supersede all policies and directives of the Board that may conflict with this Agreement and may be changed only through the mutual agreement of the Board and the Association. All terms and conditions not covered by this Agreement shall continue to be subject to the Board's direction and control and shall not be the subject of negotiations until the commencement of the negotiations for a successor to this Agreement.
B. This Agreement shall obligate both parties to comply in good faith with the terms thereof, except that it shall not prevent the Board from taking unilateral action in derogation thereof where necessary to enable the Board to carry out its responsibilities under the law; but before taking such action, the Board shall give the Association as much advance notice thereof as practicable.
C. Any individual contract between the Board and an individual employee heretofore or hereafter executed shall be subject to and consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If an individual contract contains any language inconsistent with this Agreement, this Agreement, during its duration, shall be controlling.
D. It is understood by all parties that under the ruling of the Courts of New Jersey and the State Commissioner of Education, the Board of Education is forbidden to waive any powers granted it by law.
E. This Agreement shall not be modified in whole or in part by the parties except by an instrument in writing duly executed by both parties.
F. Nondiscrimination - The Board and the Association agree that there shall be no discrimination, and that all practices, procedures and policies of the school system shall clearly exemplify that there is no discrimination in the hiring, training, assignment, promotion, transfer, or discipline of employees or in the application or administration of this Agreement on the basis of race, creed, color, religion, national origin, sex, domicile, sexual orientation or marital status.

This provision may not be used by the Board to take away work from unit members.
K. The failure of either party to exercise any right it may have under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that right.
ARTICLE XXVII
DEDUCTIONS FROM SALARY
A. 1. The Board agrees to deduct from the salaries of its employees dues for the Education Association of Nutley, the New Jersey Education Association, the National Education Association, and the Essex County Education Association as said employees, individually and voluntarily authorize the Board to deduct. Such deductions shall be made in compliance with Chapter 310, Public Laws of 1967 (N.J.S.A. 52:14-15.9e) and under rules established by the State Department of Education. Said monies, together with records of any corrections, shall be transmitted to the
treasurer of the Education Association of Nutley by the 15th of each month following the monthly pay period in which deductions were made. The Association treasurer shall disburse such monies to the appropriate association or associations.
2. Each of the associations named above shall certify to the Board, in writing, the current rate of its membership dues. Any association which shall change the rate of its membership dues shall give the Board written notice sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of such change.
3. The Board agrees to deduct from employees' salaries money for local, state and/or national association services and programs as said employees individually and voluntarily authorize the Board to deduct and to transmit the monies promptly to such association or associations. (Deductions will be discontinued only if notice of withdrawal is filed as of July 1st and January 1st , succeeding the date on which notice of withdrawal is filed. Notice of withdrawal must be filed at least sixty (60) days prior to July 1st and January 1st).
ARTICLE XXVIII
REPRESENTATION FEE
A. Purpose of Fee
If any employee included in the Recognition Clause does not become a member of the Association during any membership year (i.e., from September 1 to the following August 31) which is covered in whole or in part by this Agreement, said employee will be required to pay a representation fee to the Association for that membership year. The purpose of this fee will be to offset the employee's per capita cost of services rendered by the Association as majority representative.
B. Amount of Fee
1. Notification
Prior to the beginning of each membership year, the Association will notify the Board in writing of the amount of the regular membership dues, initiation fees and assessments charged by the Association to its own members for that membership year. The representation fee to be paid by nonmembers will be determined by the Association in accordance with the law.
2. Legal Maximum
In order to adequately offset the per capita cost of services rendered by the Association as majority representative, the representation fee should be equal in amount to the regular membership dues, initiation fees, and assessments charged by the Association to its own members, and the representation fee shall be eighty-five percent (85%) of the amount, as the maximum presently allowed by law. If the law is changed in this regard, the amount of the representation fee automatically will be increased to the maximum allowed; said increase to become effective as of the beginning of the Association membership year immediately following the effective date of the change.
C. Deduction and Transmission of Fee
1. Notification
Once during each membership year covered in whole or in part by this Agreement, the Association will submit to the Board a list of those employees who have not become members of the Association for the then current membership year. The Board will deduct from the salaries of such employees, in accordance with paragraph 2 below, the full amount of representation fee and promptly will transmit the amount so deducted to the Association.
2. Termination of Employment
If an employee who is required to pay a representation fee terminates his or her employment with the Board before the Association has received the full amount of the representation fee to which it is entitled under this Article, the Board will deduct the unpaid portion of the fee from the last paycheck paid to said employee during the membership year in question.
3. Payroll Deduction Schedule
Except as otherwise provided in this Article, the mechanics for the deduction of representation fees and the transmission of such fees to the Association will, as nearly as possible, be the same as those used for the deduction and transmission of regular membership dues to the Association, as specified in Article XXVII.
4. Changes
The Association will notify the Board in writing of any changes in the list provided for in Paragraph 1 above and/or the amount of the representation fee, and such changes will be reflected in any deductions made more than ten (10) days after the Board received said list.
5. New Employees
On or about the last day of each month, beginning with the month this Agreement becomes effective, the Board will submit to the Association a list of all employees who began their employment in a bargaining unit position during the preceding thirty (30) day period. The list will include names, job titles and dates of employment.
D. Indemnification and Save Harmless Provision
1. Liability
The Association agrees to indemnify and hold the Board harmless against any liability in damages or legal fees which may arise by reason of any action taken by the Board in complying with the provisions of this Article, provided that:
a. The Board gives the Association timely notice in writing of any claim, demand, suit or other form of liability in regard to which it will seek to implement this paragraph; and
b. If the Association so requests in writing, the Board will cooperate fully with the Association in gathering evidence, securing witnesses and in all other aspects of said defense.
2. Exception
It is expressly understood that Paragraph 1 above will not apply to any claim, demand, suit or other form of liability which may arise as a result of any type of willful misconduct by the Board or the Board's imperfect execution of the obligations imposed upon it by this Article.
