Dues

The Constitution and By-Laws authorize the Association to charge members dues. Currently the dues are $15.00 a month for active members and $9.00 for retirees.

Membership guidelines were amended in September 1982 to make all full-time employees of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department eligible for membership. Those joining the Association within 365 days of hire will avoid equity charges, provided they are under the age of thirty-five (35). Equity charges will be implemented for each year of employment by the Department as a non-member. There will also be a reduction of mortuary benefits for persons becoming members in later years. However, the benefits that accrue from membership far outweigh these fees necessitated by late enrollment.
