The union is seeking an immediate $5-hourly wage increase for all hotel workers, regardless of their current pay level.
Unite Here also wants the hotels to continue providing family healthcare coverage for employees, and it’s seeking upgrades to their pension plan as well as reasonable workloads.
“I’m living paycheck to paycheck,” the 36-year-old single mother said. “I’m renting a room from a family member for $1,000 a month. But I live 21 miles away, so I’m driving 42 miles every day. And they want to take away our health insurance. That means I’d have to pay $500 a month.” The Coordinated Bargaining Group recently filed unfair labor practice charges against the workers’ union with the National Labor Relations Board. The charges allege Unite Here broke the law by attempting to force the hotels into a contract with elements that have nothing to do with their employees and “could harm the Los Angeles tourism industry.”
