Baltimore, MD - Sept. 2, 2024  (WMAR2News) Approximately 10,000 hotel workers from Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt locations across the U.S. are striking over Labor Day weekend. Organized by the UNITE HERE union, the workers demand higher wages, fair staffing, and manageable workloads, citing that many COVID-era service cuts have not been restored despite record profits in the industry. The strike impacts 24 hotels across eight cities, including Boston, Honolulu, San Diego, and San Francisco. The union urges guests to avoid using services at these hotels until their demands are met.
