Probation
OCEA members in the Probation Department are represented by union stewards and a professional staff of labor relations representatives. Standing together, every OCEA member in the Probation Department plays a role in achieving better wages, retirement security and fair rights on the job.
The information below is a resource for all OCEA members in the Probation Department. Below, you will find a list of stewards and staff representatives for OCEA members assigned to the Probation Department. You’ll also find the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), which is the negotiated union contract that sets forth the wages, hours and working conditions guiding your employment. And you can also find updates and news from OCEA about what’s happening in your agency and across the County.

It has been an honor to represent public servants as your Trustee on the OCERS Board. As you know, workers elect two member representatives to serve as Trustees on your behalf. I was first elected to the Board in 2012, and I have consistently stood with you to protect your OCERS pension against attacks and unnecessary cost increases.
