We also welcome any volunteers that can help unload a truck and set up the distribution room on December 20. Please email teresa@sacramentolabor.org if you are able to volunteer.

Your SEIU Local 1000 union contract contains hundreds of articles governing your hard-earned rights, including wages, benefits, and working conditions. This overview explains how our 96,000 represented state workers are entitled to 11 observed holidays and how you’re paid for those holidays, should you be required to work on one of those days.
