We are a labor union, formed in 1894, representing more than 5,000 public sector professionals in 40+ departments in the City of Los Angeles. EAA members are essential to the smooth operations of the City, providing some of the City’s most important services. Simply put, without us, the City doesn’t work!

EAA’s diversity of membership, our vast skills, and our presence in nearly every City department makes us #UnionStrong. We work together with our members and City managers to ensure that our voices and priorities are reflected in all worksite policies. EAA strives to uphold integrity, accountability, and transparency.

As a dues-paying member of EAA and IBEW, you can actively participate in the decisions that affect your livelihood. All members receive union-funded benefits, and have access to Members Headquarters (HQ), exclusive events, open meetings, and the right to vote in contract ratification and officer elections.
