(2) At the end of each calendar quarter, a county shall provide to the
exclusive representative the following information for each county employee in the
bargaining unit:
(a) The name, employee identification number, department, job
classification, job title, work telephone number, work email address, work address,
work location, salary, and date of hire of each county employee as contained in the
county's records; and
(b) The home address, home and personal cellular telephone numbers, and
personal email address of each county employee, unless directed by the county
employee not to provide some or all of the information.
(3) (a) (I) Within thirty days after a county employee is hired, the county shall
provide the exclusive representative with an opportunity to meet with that county
employee during work time as determined pursuant to subsection (3)(a)(III) of this
section.
(II) The county shall provide the exclusive representative notice at least ten
days in advance of a new employee orientation; except that a shorter notice may be
provided when there is an urgent need, critical to the county's operations, that was
not reasonably foreseeable.
(III) The county and the exclusive representative shall determine the
structure, time, and manner of the employee organization's access to county
employees through collective bargaining. The collective bargaining agreement
must provide the exclusive representative access to the county's employee
orientation and orientation materials and information.
(b) The county shall pay its county employees for the time employees meet
with the exclusive representative pursuant to this subsection (3). The county shall
pay each county employee the same rate of pay that the employee is paid during
normal work hours.
(4) The county shall make payroll deductions for membership dues and other
payments that county employees voluntarily authorize to be made to the exclusive
representative and related entities. The exclusive representative and related
entities shall be the only organizations for which the county shall make payroll
deductions from county employees who are in a bargaining unit represented by the
exclusive representative.

for payroll deductions made in any form that satisfies the requirements of the
Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, article 71.3 of title 24, including without
limitation electronic authorizations, including voice authorizations, that meet the
requirements of an electronic signature as defined in section 24-71.3-102 (8).
(b) At the election of the exclusive representative, a county employee's
request to cancel or change authorizations for payroll deductions must be directed
to the exclusive representative rather than to the county. In such case, the
exclusive representative is responsible for processing the request in accordance
with the terms of the authorization. An authorization for a payroll deduction may not
be irrevocable for a period of more than one year.
(c) An exclusive representative that certifies that it has and will maintain
individual county employee authorizations is not required to provide a copy of an
individual authorization to the county unless a dispute arises about the existence or
terms of that authorization. The exclusive representative shall indemnify the county
for any claims made by the county employee for deductions made in reliance on
information maintained by the exclusive representative.
