There are many sorts of jobs and even more titles for the workers, and there are thus also various groups of individual members belonging to the member associations. There are also other Unions into which people are organized. If you are not certain about where you belong to, do not hesitate to ask the association representatives. This it does in cooperation with other Unions working within the same field.
All members pay fees to their member association.
The size of the fees is agreed on annually. Others receive bank giro receipts with which they take care of the fees. These income-based unemployment benefits can be collected only if the fees have been duly paid. Members' Rights Tatte membership guarantees certain benefits. Among other things, we safeguard our members' legal and social rights at the workplace and provide assistance in work-related matters.
