Unite Here Local 11 Co-President Kurt Petersen, right at podium, congratulates hotel workers and leaders as he announces the ratification results and unveiled the new contract terms at a news conference on the steps of the Intercontinental Hotel downtown in Los Angeles, Monday, March 25, 2024.
The union also stressed that the contract maintains health insurance in which workers pay no more than $20 monthly for full family coverage. Characterizing their demands as a fight for wages that will allow members to live in the cities where they work, more than 10,000 employees in greater Los Angeles began rolling strikes at 52 hotels in July 2023. Workers repeatedly went on strike, picketed and later returned to work. The union represents 15,000 workers but staff at some hotels have not engaged in strikes.
Petersen also pointed out that the new contract expires just months before the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
