New Member Orientation
Security

Welcome to SEIU Local 49, from President Meg Niemi

On behalf of our entire membership, I would like to welcome you to the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 49. As a member of SEIU 49, you are part of a vibrant and democratic organization that is dedicated to improving the lives of working families. We are over 15,000 healthcare workers, janitors, and security officers in Oregon and Southwest Washington who are coming together to win livable wages, affordable healthcare benefits, and job security, and to create a more just society.

We are stronger together, and I encourage you to be an active member of our union. You will have the opportunity to help enforce your contract in your worksite, organize new members into our union, and advocate at our State Capitols to pass laws that help working families.

Contribute to COPE

"Our Political Action Fund goes towards tackling the issues that security officers and our families care most about. I contribute to this fund, because I know that it goes directly towards making sure that elected leaders are held accountable and are moving the dial forward on such important things as fair wages, sick leave, affordable care and so much more. I have personally worked with legislators on creating laws that help our officers and I know we could not do this without our COPE program.

Help make sure politics work for us and our families. Join me in contributing to this important fund."

—Linda Sporer Security Officer & SEIU Local 49 Executive Board Member
