Health Benefits
Employees in non-union hotels pay hundreds of dollars a month for health insurance, making healthcare unaffordable for most. Our union contract requires employers to pay nearly all of the costs of members' health benefits, including health, dental, and optical care. Because of our union contract, members and their families have affordable access to these essential benefits.
