Welcome to the Air District!

Welcome to the Air District and congratulations on becoming part of an organization that strives to better the lives of Bay Area residents. The Air District provides numerous advantageous perks, including the opportunity to become a part of the BAAQMD Employees’ Association (EA).

The EA was formed in 1973 by a group of concerned employees who believed that the Bay Area Air Quality Management District needed a viable employees organization. On announcing the formation of the EA, the founding members stated:

“The District Employees Association will have as its principal aim the advancement of all interests affecting the welfare of District employees, including but not limited to wages, promotional opportunities, job security and fringe benefits. Other specific aims of the Association will be to improve communication among District employees relevant to District decisions and policies, to promote intelligent cooperation between the Association and the Bay Area Air Pollution District and to assist in the maintenance of the highest standards of public services.”
