No contract, no peace! Let's keep the pressure on!
Wow–we did that! SEIU 1021 San Francisco City and County members turned out in force January 17 at City Hall and again last Friday, February 16, at SF General Hospital. We were over 500 members strong Friday–and DPH heard us loud and clear.
We were united and our message was powerful: To provide the quality public services SF residents and visitors need, the City MUST fill its vacant positions and STOP wasteful contracting out.
Takeaways are still on the table. That means we have to keep the pressure on.

Members pointed out that DPH's current approach to staffing is dangerous and not cost-effective
Tuesday, February 6, SEIU 1021 members who work for the San Francisco Department of Public Health (DPH) attended the monthly Health Commission meeting as DPH Chief Financial Officer Jenny Louie presented a budget proposal for fiscal years 24-25 and 25-26. To meet Mayor London Breed’s request for all City departments to cut their budgets by 10%, the budget proposal focuses on eliminating vacant positions and further contracting out.
