SEIU 721 L.A. County DCFS member leaders deliver major workplace safety victories!

SEIU Local 721 is leading the way in protecting our members and making our workplaces safe. Working in collaboration with Los Angeles County, our Brothers and Sisters at the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services recently secured a set of victories whose impact will be felt across L.A., San Bernardino, and Ventura Counties, as well as statewide. In collaboration with L.A. County, our SEIU 721 member leaders, made sure L.A. County DCFS offices were prepared for any disaster. We conducted a safety audit in each regional office, and began reviewing concerns on a case-by-case basis, and are implementing improvements beyond those listed, where needed.

SEIU 721 Responds to DCFS Audit

There are never enough hours in the day to finish all the work diligently, so every CSW who logs into their computer system during non-regular working hours must also first submit a DCFS 158 form. SCSW’s who sign field itineraries for CSW’s outside of regular hours, must also have these CSW’s submit a form 158 for the overtime.
