Sheriff's Department
OCEA members in the Orange County Sheriff’s Department are represented by union stewards and a professional staff of labor relations representatives. Standing together, every OCEA member in the Orange County Sheriff’s 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 Orange County Sheriff’s Department. Below, you will find a list of stewards and staff representatives for OCEA members assigned to the Orange County Sheriff’s 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.

PROTECT HB Libraries! Call to Action!
March 25, 2024
On March 19, the City Council voted by a 4-3 vote to issue a “Request for Proposal” to outsource the Library. Outsourcing our City libraries not only hurts the City but is a dangerous action that demonstrates a willingness to undermine public service, good jobs, and our community assets.
