About OPSA
The OP Staff Assembly supports UC’s mission by encouraging communication between staff, the administration and other members of the university community on matters of interest to staff employees, in accordance with California laws and Regental policy. Our activities provide forums where staff at all levels can discuss issues of mutual concern, and offer opinions and recommendations on policies, processes and programs.
Led by a steering committee of employees from across UCOP’s divisions and departments, OPSA fosters an understanding of the university’s mission and UCOP’s connection to UC campuses, hospitals and laboratories by providing networking opportunities to increase the exchange of knowledge in all aspects of the UCOP community.
