1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East
We are so honored to have been selected to help strengthen the security of the various 1199SEIU locations along the East Coast. Yesterday, we were fortunate enough to tour their 15-story headquarters, which spans 570,000 SF at 498 Seventh Avenue in Manhattan. What a beautiful space to serve their members.
With over 80 years on the frontlines for quality care, good jobs & social justice, Local 1199 was founded in 1932 by Leon Davis and a group of New York City pharmacy workers who were pioneers in the struggle for living wages and against racial segregation during the 1930s. Today, with over 450,000 members, 1199SEIU is the largest healthcare union in the nation and continues to grow in strength and numbers. 1199SEIU members are moving forward in all our regions and nationally by working in coalition with progressive organizations to build the strongest voice for all working people.
