Already a Member of the Local

 At present the UNA policy dictates that a person may only have a membership in one local for a particular employer.  However, it is possible to be a member of more than one local if they work for different employers.  If you search finds such a person, the message will read, **Already a Member Within this Employer** and will not allow you to give them membership.
