BUSINESS WIRE -- On Monday April 13h, in the middle of the deepest economic recession in this country in 50 years, the Radisson LAX hotel signed a union contract giving significant wage increases, free family health insurance and providing safer working conditions for the 160 hotel workers who work at the hotel. City Councilman Bill Rosendahl, joined Radisson LAX owner Peter Dumon, and community leaders to congratulate hotel workers on their victory and applauded the hotel for doing the right thing in these tough economic times. Hotel workers from the Sheraton Gateway, Four Points LAX, and Westin LAX also joined the Radisson LAX workers to celebrate their recently won victories. Hotel workers at all four hotels will now be covered by union contracts with UNITE HERE Local 11. The Hilton LAX is the last of the hotels that was part of UNITE HERE Local 11’s ‘New Century’ campaign that is still non union, and is still being boycotted by UNITE HERE Local 11.
