An update from SEIU 1021 President Joseph Bryant
Dear SEIU 1021 member,
Since coronavirus became a global pandemic, our union’s attention has been focused on how to ensure the health, safety, and economic well-being of our members, families, and communities—including many of our members who, in the midst of this crisis, continue to provide crucial services in our communities.
I know that things are scary now and we’re all disappointed at how unprepared the Federal administration was for this outbreak, so I wanted to outline the steps our local is taking to protect our members and share resources from the California Department of Public Health.
Right now, SEIU 1021 staff and member leaders are working hard to safeguard your health at work by pursuing the following demands:
- Employers must minimize the risk of infection for members.
- Employers must adopt and provide copies of emergency response protocols and plans.
- Employers must bargain over workplace changes and their impact on members.
