Description
The Ohio AFSCME Care Plan was established in 1973 with the Cuyahoga County Hospitals covering some 2,400 employees. The Care Plan was established under a joint Trust Agreement in strict accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio and Federal Government. The Care Plan is administered by a 14-member Board of Trustees composed of equal representation by the Employers and AFSCME.
For more than 70 years, AFSCME has been the union for public and non-profit workers in America. Today, AFSCME represents more than 1.6 million members in 46 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico with about 3,500 local unions and affiliates. Each local union writes its own constitution, designs its own structure, elects its own officers, and sets its own dues. Local unions often pool their resources by forming councils which provide services and representation by region or occupation. Currently there are 61 councils, including AFSCME Ohio Council 8.
