They are part of the larger international union, UNITE HERE, which has a membership of 300,000 workers. The union aims to secure and maintain good jobs for its members, fighting for better working conditions, wages, and benefits. Through their collective efforts, they have successfully raised standards and improved the quality of life for themselves, their families, and other hotel workers. Local 878 is actively involved in labor disputes, advocating for affordable healthcare, safe workloads, job security protections, and reasonable wage increases for workers in the Anchorage Hilton, which has been negatively impacted since its acquisition by Columbia Sussex. The union is also engaged in boycotts of the Anchorage Hilton and Sheraton Anchorage, urging support from the community to stand in solidarity with the workers. By joining forces with other UNITE HERE members across state and national borders, Local 878 has strengthened its position and achieved significant victories in the fight for workers' rights.Generated from the website
