Workers are picketing major Southern California hotels after walking off the job during the holiday weekend to demand better pay and benefits.
Striking hotel workers play drums as they rally outside the Intercontinental Hotel on Monday, July 3, 2023, in downtown Los Angeles. Workers picketed major Southern California hotels Monday after walking off the job during the July Fourth long weekend to demand better pay and benefits.
Contracts expired at midnight Friday at more than 60 hotels, including properties owned by major chains such as Marriott and Hilton. The strike affects about half of the 32,000 hospitality workers the union represents across Southern California and Arizona. The walkout comes amid holiday celebrations and a major anime convention in Los Angeles. The union, on its website, urged guests to “not eat, sleep or meet” at the striking hotels, where temporary employees were hired to cover for the striking workers. But it wasn't immediately clear whether the strike resulted in guests checking out early or lacking services.Hollywood writers have been on strike since early May.
