Security Officers Uniting

How Security Officers Are Improving Our Jobs and Building Our Careers

Today, more than ever, the safety and well-being of building tenants and the public depends on security officers. But too often, we find ourselves without proper training and proper compensation for the job we do. That’s why security officers across the U.S. are coming together to form a union with SEIU, the country’s largest and fastest-growing union of private security officers.

  • More than 5,000 San Francisco Bay Area security officers formed a union with SEIU.
  • More than 1,000 New York security officers recently united with SEIU.
  • More than 1,500 Minnesota security officers have united with SEIU.
  • 9,000 Chicago security officers are members of SEIU.
  • Security officers in cities across the country are organizing to win better pay, benefits, and training by forming a union with SEIU.

SEIU security officers come from a proud tradition of service and professionalism. More than 50,000 SEIU members work in private security, law enforcement, and other public safety jobs in more than a dozen U.S. cities.

The goal of SEIU security officers is to bring more professionalism and respect to private security by increasing training, improving wages and benefits, and developing career opportunities for security officers.
