My Health & Safety
Our union is a special place that brings us together as workers. Our greatest strength is our strength in numbers. OCEA’s core mission is to protect you and your family and this has been the foundation of our union since OCEA’s formation in 1937.
OCEA members work to keep our community safe. We believe public employers should take the necessary steps to protect the workers who protect everyone else. OCEA fights nonstop to protect your health and safety. It is a privilege to stand with each and every one of you as we meet this challenge together.
