Health & Welfare Benefits

Since 1937, OCEA members have stood together to advocate for improved benefits to support themselves and their families. Today, the OCEA Health & Welfare Trust offers affordable dental, vision, disability, and life insurance plans that best meets our members’ needs. OCEA members can also choose to buy enhanced dental and vision coverage for added protection. The Trust also hosts a health fair each year to connect members with resources to stay healthy.
