Our County of Ventura union contract expires December 18, 2025.

It’s time for the first step in our bargaining campaign process – nominating our bargaining team.

Use the form below to submit your bargaining team nomination here.

As county employees, this is a great opportunity for union members to have your voices heard.

Members in good standing may nominate themselves or any other County of Ventura member. The nominee must be a member in good standing.

An election will be conducted if the number of candidates exceeds the number of available seats on the Bargaining Team.

New Job Classification Tables

We’ve proposed the expansion of our bargaining teams, apportioned relative to the percentage of members and number of job classifications in that unit.

This expansion promises increased power at the table, and stronger representation for every member throughout the bargaining process. Our proposed expansion will see our bargaining team grow from 18 members to 25.

In previous years, the bargaining team was built by bargaining units. Now, we will be using bargaining tables which are more closely tied to job classification functions. Here is the breakdown of these tables.

Table Number of Seats
 Direct Patient Care 3
 Community Based Care 4
 Clerical  5
 Social Services HSA 4
 Professional 4
 Service Work 3
 Public Works 2
 Total 25

You are not limited to nominating coworkers in your bargaining table. But when we get to voting for our bargaining team, you will need this information and will only be able to vote for members in your table.

Submit your nomination by Friday, May 2, 2025 at 5:00pm (PST).

NOMINATIONS ARE NOW CLOSED.
