If you are a manager, supervisor, confidential or exempt employee in state service, we invite you to join the Association of California State Supervisors. ACSS is the largest organization representing state workers who are not covered by a bargaining contract. As a member of ACSS, you will not only be helping your own career; you will be joining with thousands of your colleagues to work together for better pay, benefits and working conditions for all exempt employees.

Join now by printing out this pdf version of our membership application, filling it out and mailing it to us. You don't send money. We take care of arranging your automatic dues deduction.

If you're still not sure you want to join, consider that you can enjoy advantages that more than outweigh the modest cost of your monthly dues:

• Professional labor representation when you need counsel or help with job circumstances -- free to members.
• The opportunity to work for better conditions for excluded employees, often dealing personally with your elected officials.
• Networking with your peers in state service.
• Frequent publications and a Web site that is updated almost daily bringing you information to help you do your job better.
• A $10,000 death benefit policy absolutely FREE.
• Discounts on a huge variety of extra benefits, including theme park and movie admissions, cruises, travel, financing options, computer purchases and a variety of insurance packages.

Your monthly dues will be less than 1 percent of your pay. To calculate your dues, use this formula (it looks more formidable than it is): Multiply your monthly salary by .007 (7/1000) and add $4.50. The minimum dues are $15 a month; the maximum you will pay is $36 a month. (Or just use our automatic calculator at left.) Once established, your dues will be automatically deducted through payroll deductions.
