*HUGE* Victory for 8,000 Chicago Workers!
Chris,
As a supporter of Chicago Jobs with Justice, you are part of a truly *huge* victory for 8,000 airport workers with SEIU Local 1!
"Nearly 8,000 contract employees at O’Hare and Midway Airports would be paid 'no less than $13.45-an-hour' and guaranteed the right to join unions under a mayoral plan embraced by organized labor.
Below is quoted from the Chicago Sun-Times, on the new ordinance introduced (now with the Mayor's support), to improve wages and working conditions at O'Hare airport, including organizing to form a union and win a union contract to protect those standards!
"[The Ordinance] would mandate those airline contractors and sub-contractors to pay their employees no less than $13.45-an-hour, beginning on July 1, 2018, with annual increases every year after that tied to the cost-of-living."
After tireless years of organizing, protesting, and striking in their #FightFor15 and union rights, contracted service workers at Chicago O'Hare International Airport are a HUGE step closer to yearly raises and all the benefits that come with union membership!
