Our union continues to receive regular reports of recurring health and safety issues from buildings throughout the district. These issues include, but are not limited to, mold and air quality problems, rodent and pest infestations, extreme temperatures, and general disrepair such as leaks and restrooms out of-order. The health and safety of our members, our students, and other CCS employees is of paramount importance to CEA. Your union has created an online Health and Safety Concern Reporting Form to assist us in compiling evidence of unacceptable conditions at CCS worksites. Go to http://bit.ly/ceahealthsafety to submit your concern electronically. Don’t forget to include any photos or other related items that will help document the issue.  If you have any further questions regarding member health and safety, please don’t hesitate to contact CEA at (614) 253-4731.

CEA will be holding a Mass Membership Meeting on Tuesday, May 28, at the Ohio Expo Center & State Fair Celeste Center (717 E. 17th Ave). Registration will begin at 4:30 p.m. with the meeting starting promptly at 6 p.m. Your Union is asking all members to wear red for the schools #ColumbusStudentsDeserve.

You will need a photo ID to enter. Your school ID or driver’s license are acceptable forms of identification. CEA will cover the cost of parking, however, it is $5 per car so please plan to carpool if possible so we can keep our costs down. The purpose of this meeting is to inform members of the progress of bargaining prior to the beginning of summer break.
