Hotel Workers Rising :: The Hyatt 100

Support Fired Hyatt Housekeepers - Sign the Pledge!

We pledge to support the “Hyatt 100” workers in Boston who were fired on August 31, 2009. We call on Hyatt to re-hire the “Hyatt 100” workers immediately.

We further pledge to honor the boycott called by these workers.

We will not do business at the Hyatt Regency Boston, the Hyatt Regency Cambridge or the Hyatt Harborside until the “Hyatt 100” workers receive their jobs back.

"...Surely there is some way to retain the jobs for your housekeeping staffs, as other hotels have done, and to work with them to help the company meet its current challenges, rather than tossing them out unceremoniously to fend for themselves while the people they trained take their jobs at barely livable wages."

- MA Governor Deval Patrick
