SUNRISE PICKET!
“As a housekeeper, I work very hard so that Homewood guests can have clean rooms and a good experience at the hotel, but the pressure of having to clean so many checkouts in one day gives me so much stress that I don’t have any energy for my kids when I come home at the end of the day. That’s why I am fighting for the same workload protections, fair raises and affordable health insurance for my family, that other union hotel housekeepers in Oakland have.” – Consuelo Andrade, Homewood Suites Room Attendant
Housekeeping staff at the Homewood Suites are paid at Oakland’s minimum wage. The health insurance offered to employees is unaffordable for the majority of Homewood workers, so that some have to depend on public benefits. And many housekeepers complain of chronic body pain from cleaning too many rooms under time pressure. Homewood Suites workers are standing up for living wages, safe workloads, and affordable health care!
Join them on the picket line – and experience a gorgeous sunrise and good coffee while you fight for justice!
