Worker Well-Being
We persistently work to enhance the quality of life for workers everywhere by promoting fair labor practices, securing better wages and benefits, and fostering safe, respectful, and equitable work environments.

The Protection of
Employees Is Important

The Professionals Guild of Ohio is first a trade union. We are a local union with statewide jurisdiction, working with all kinds of employees. We specialize in assisting groups of health and human service providers to organize themselves to improve their wages, benefits, conditions in the workplace, and the conditions for their clients. We also work extensively with paraprofessional and non-professional employees. We are a democratically governed union, meaning that all major decisions regarding officers, policies, and finances, are made by the membership, or their elected representatives.
