About

SEIU Florida is one of the state’s largest unions, representing over 80,000 diverse professionals and essential workers statewide within 5 locals. Our members provide essential services in Florida’s hospitals, nursing homes, public schools, community colleges, universities, municipal and county governments, and airports. As working Floridians, we advocate for issues facing our workplaces and our local communities, such as a living wage, equality and dignity on the job, and quality affordable healthcare.


Our Florida locals are:  


SEIU 1991

SEIU Healthcare Florida Local 1991 is the exclusive bargaining representative for the 5,000 registered nurses, attending physicians and healthcare professionals in the Jackson Health System. Since SEIU Local 1991 was chartered in 1991, we have negotiated some of the best wages and working conditions in the United States for our members. We are proud to have one of the few contracts in the nation with a guaranteed 40-hour work week as well as a full-time 36-hour work week. We recently negotiated into our contract a rare and coveted provision requiring a nurse-to-patients staffing ratios policy at Jackson.
