Today, workers at the Hilton Hawaiian Village voted to ratify their new contract ending a 40-day strike that began on September 24 ✅ Over 1,800 workers are expected to return to work tomorrow at 4 a.m. The Hilton Hawaiian Village was one of eight hotels in Hawai‘i that went on a historic 3-day strike over Labor Day Weekend. More than 3,200 Local 5 members at the seven other hotels are still working without a contract and could strike at any time. “Workers at the Hilton Hawaiian Village have led all of us to an important & historic victory that puts hospitality workers and this community one step closer to making ‘one job enough’ a reality," said Cade Watanabe, Financial Secretary-Treasurer. “But our campaign continues until we have achieved settlements with Hyatt, Kyo-ya & Marriott - where more than 3,200 hotel workers have also authorized additional strikes if necessary.”
