Welcome to the Oapse Home page. My name is Barb Goode and I am your Oapse President. We are going through an unprecedented time for the second year as we are trying to get through this Pandemic called COVID 19. Hopefully, everything will get back to "normal" soon. Until then, it is more important than ever to be united and strive for the best year ever. With this in mind, I would like to take this time to wish everyone a wonderful and safe year.
The union is here to make sure that we are all represented to the best of our ability. So, if you ever have a problem, question or concern about your job, your rights, or unfair labor practices, together we will take the steps necessary to help solve your problem. If you are not a member I would like to talk to you about the advantages of being in the Union.
Our meetings are generally the second Tuesday of the month at 5:00, with a One Call in advance to remind everyone. Please keep us updated with phone numbers.
Union members and family members qualify for a FREE Associates Degree online, you now qualify for a Bachelors Degree at low to no cost in the same area as your Associates Degree! There are more college options this year which I will update on this page later. It is a very good time to be in the Union, when you are offered TWO degrees for yourself and/or your family members! As more people struggle to send their children to college, we offer free online to Eastern Gateway Community College for Associates Degree or Central State University for your Bachelors degree! Your family doesn't even have to live with you or be your dependent. Go to OAPSEeducation.org or call 1-888-897-9671 for more information.
Please don't forget that this year is negotiation year. Last year we agreed to a 3% raise not to negotiate. Go over your contract to see if you have any concerns or see anything that needs changed. This is YOUR Union! Please feel free to come to any Officer or Representative at any time.
