Public Guardian Case Management Forum Call for Agenda Items

Dear OCEA member,

The Public Guardian Case Management Forum is scheduled for Wednesday, August 18. The conference call details are provided by management in advance of each meeting.

Agenda Items Needed

If you would like to submit any items for this month’s agenda, please send them before Friday, August 13 to me at mrubio@ocea.org. Please let me know if the agenda item pertains to a specific Public Guardian issue or program or a broader topic.

It is important that we maintain the Case Management Forum (CMF) as a safe space to address workplace issues with management. Your OCEA Bargaining Teams fought hard to get CMFs and other mechanisms for pursuing workplace fairness into our negotiated Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the County.

Stewards Needed

As with any challenge the union faces – a pandemic, a divided electorate, or anti-worker candidates – one of the solutions at OCEA is building power through Stewards serving as workplace leaders. Please consider becoming an OCEA Steward. Contact OCEA Sr. Organizer Alisha Greene at agreene@ocea.org if you have any questions or concerns. 

To learn more, go to OCEA’s “Get Involved” page by clicking here. You can also click here for a Steward Information sheet. Also, if you know of any coworkers who are the go-to-person or leader in their program, feel free to let us know by nominating them as a potential steward. You can click here for a Steward Nomination and Petition Form.

We want to make sure your workplace issues are being addressed by the CMF, and the best way to do that is having representation and leadership from every area.

Standing together, we can make sure our voice is heard.

In Solidarity,

Michelle Rubio
Labor Relations Representative
