Welcome New Members
Welcome to OPEIU Local 8! Your Union is an employee organization that is only as strong as you make it. Our power depends on active participation and support from you and your co-workers. The links on this page will provide some helpful tools for members.
If you’re a new member, you may have received a New Member Packet in the mail or at a new employee orientation. You can find most of the materials below. If you have questions, don’t hesitate to call our office at (206) 441-8880 or (800) 600-2433. Or, you can send an email to opeiu8@opeiu8.org.
Most importantly, visit your employer page (or, Workplace Dashboard) for updates, resources, and your Union Rep/Shop Steward’s contact info.
