Hyatt Regency Waikiki guests upset that workers aren’t being called back to work

Hyatt Regency Waikiki workers handed out leaflets to guests off-property. When Hyatt housekeeper Vicky told a guest that she is not being scheduled to work because of the elimination of daily room cleaning, the guest was so frustrated and mad that workers are not being called back despite the hotel’s high occupancy. The guest asked for flyers to pass out to other guests inside the hotel, encouraging them to join our call to ask for their rooms to be cleaned daily.
