On March 1, SEIU Local 721 San Bernardino members went to the Board of Supervisors meeting to shed light on the negative impact of the cuts to their departments, jobs, and their lives. We have their attention, and that was just a sample!
During National Social Worker Appreciation Month, SEIU 721 proudly honors our dedicated members who serve the most vulnerable residents in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and Ventura Counties.
SEIU members from all over the United States and Canada will participate in the SEIU Convention in Detroit, Michigan from May 20-24, 2016. The SEIU Convention is held every four years.
While we have made small gains following the Great Recession, many of us in the Inland area are still struggling to make ends meet and continue to live pay check to pay check. As both the City of Riverside General and Refuse Units face contract negotiations this summer, members’ answers to this survey will help set the priorities for the 2016 SEIU 721 Bargaining Team.
Ballots are counted, and the new SEIU 721 City of Riverside General, and Refuse Unit bargaining team was announced at the first general membership meeting of the year, Tuesday, Jan. 19. The transition of chapter leadership also took place. Enrique Barboza was installed as the new chapter chair, and members feted outgoing chapter president Frank Corral.
As we enter the new year, the SEIU 721 City of Riverside chapter General and Refuse units are ready to enter in negotiations for a new contract. Nominations are in, and ballots have been mailed to members’ homes.
It’s official. The 2016 Executive Board (E-Board) Election process is well under way.
Ballots must be returned to and received at the post office by 9 am on March 11, 2016 in the envelope provided.
