Anchorage Hotel Union Scores Legal Victory
An Anchorage union leader declared temporary victory September 1 for workers in a federal administrative judge's ruling in a fight at the Sheraton Anchorage, but said the boycott of the hotel is not over. The labor dispute with Remington Lodging & Hospitality, the operator of the Sheraton Anchorage, has gone on for over two years, the union said. The latest ruling came Aug. 25 in a decision from Administrative Law Judge Gregory Z. Meyerson in Washington, D.C. Meyerson ordered the Texas-based operator of the hotel to stop doing certain things, including pressuring workers to decertify the union and suspending or disciplining employees because they engaged in protected union activity. The local represents about 160 workers at the hotel. Click here for the full story.
