Workers Need Help Picketing the Pacific Beach Hotel

The ILWU has asked for the help of the members of UHPA as they picket the Pacific Beach Hotel each day of Golden Week.

Pacific Beach Hotel workers voted to unionize almost 3 years ago and still don’t have a first contract after more than two years of continuous bargaining. When the owners of the hotel changed the company that managed the facilities, they required all employees, some with over 20 years of service,  to reapply for their jobs. Members of the negotiating team and other union leaders were not “rehired.”   Learn more at the website: http://pacbeachworkers.ilwulocal142.org/

Unions from around the state have signed up to picket and demonstrate their solidarity with these workers.  UHPA is calling on our members to also participate.

Where: Pacific Beach Hotel, Waikiki, 2490 Kalakaua Avenue
(3 blocks ewa of Honolulu Zoo)

Date: Saturday, May 3rd and Tuesday, May 6th

Time: 2:00 to 5:00 p.m.

Parking: Easiest at the Honolulu Zoo or Kapiolani Park

ILWU workers will be picketing every day from May 1st through the 6th.  You can join the picketing at any time.  The support of the public and other workers is critical to resolving this dispute at this longstanding local hotel. Please give them some of your time and show your support!
