Subject: Member Resignation IBEW#, Card#, State JW #

Dear Members,

I hereby request suspension until such time that related employment will not jeopardize my good standing with the Union.

I have not acted on, but have received offers from non-union shops, responding to an online resume required by my state Unemployment Department. Further, none of these shops have been willing to participate in a union salting option at this time. In order avoid one of several policy violation with my union working agreement, please accept my voluntary suspension in good standing.

Sincerely,

Member name
