Here are some ways to address concerns & answer questions:

Check the latest edition of INK or updates from SEA:

Most updates are sent to home email addresses of active SEA members. Not receiving these emails? Use the online form to let us know so we can look into it. Reply to INK emails anytime to reach the SEA office 

Check your Collective Bargaining Agreement:

Whether you have a simple or complex question, a great first step is to take a look at your collective bargaining agreement (CBA). Use the ctrl+f (find) feature to search for the topic of concern.

Reach out to your Building Representative:

If you can't find the answer in the CBA or need more clarification, seek out your building representative and they may be able to find the solution with you.

You can work with your Leadership Team to ask a question or problem-solve an issue. Each unit has a leadership team to address issues and find solutions alongside SEA staff and SPS supervisors.
