Waikiki Resort workers win extended recall rights

Workers at Waikiki Resort got recall rights extended!  Workers have an additional year of recall rights starting now, or 3 years from the date of layoff, whichever is longer.

“Workers at the Waikiki Resort secured extended recall rights! This is a big victory for people who haven’t gone back to work. This will give us job protection. More people are less scared to lose their job, especially for those who need to stay home right now for their safety.”
