SACRAMENTO CITY EXEMPT EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION

Why We Formed

SCXEA was formed in 2011 so employees would have a voice in decisions about our pay and benefits after years of taking the brunt of budget reductions. We also wanted to work collaboratively with the City Manager and City Council to solve problems and offer solutions. Management employees are represented in 23 of the 25 largest cities in the state and in many counties. We are the management and administrative backbone of the organization and know we add even more value when we are included and listened to.

What's Different About SCXEA?

  • We are an Employee-Driven Association Representing City Employees Only, not Affiliated Elsewhere.
  • Being Intimately Involved in Budget and Management Decisions, We Have First-Hand Knowledge of What's Realistic and What's Possible, Both Fiscally and Operationally.
  • We are Opposed to Some of The Divisive Tactics Used By Some Labor Organizations and Have Pledged to Act Respectfully as The Professional Managers That We are, in The Best Spirit of Public Service.
  • Membership is Voluntary, and More Than 320 Employees – Nearly 50% of Those Eligible – are Members.
