Job action ends at Harrison Hot Springs Hotel, but the battle for better wages and benefits is far from over
CHILLIWACK — The three-day strike initiated by unionized workers at Harrison Hot Springs Resort & Spa may have wrapped up, but the battle is far from over.
Michelle Travis from Unite Here Local 40 told Fraser Valley Today in a text message Monday (July 8) that workers concluded their three-day job action Monday and returned back to work early Monday morning.
“They delivered a strong message to management that their concerns should be taken seriously,” Travis wrote in a text message at 3:59 p.m. Monday to Fraser Valley Today. “We expect to be back in negotiations soon.”
The union tweeted over the weekend that unionized hotel workers were simply fighting for fair wages, benefits and workload.
