OCEA demands protections for workers fighting the COVID-19 emergency
March 23, 2020
The past several weeks have been unprecedented for our nation and our union. We are adapting to new realities with the same values that have guided our union—advocacy, member involvement and strength in numbers.
OCEA is here for you
March 20, 2020
In compliance with Governor Gavin Newsom’s March 19, 2020 order, OCEA is further limiting the number of workers stationed at our headquarters at 830 N. Ross Street. The OCEA building has been closed to the public to limit contacts that could lead to a transmission of the COVID-19 virus. What is not being limited in any way is the exclusive representation OCEA staff continues to provide to you and your fellow OCEA members. Please see the graphic below illustrating how to reach all of OCEA’s divisions and services. Every member of our team remains on the job and available through telecommuting.

A press release issued by the Court clarified that the closure is not in response to a specific notice of exposure at any Court facility or to any Court staff. Instead, it is intended to help limit the spread of the virus and the potential for future exposure.
