A service industry union organization in the United States announced on September 1 local time that due to the breakdown of labor-management negotiations, about 10,000 hotel service workers from eight cities went on strike from that day to demand that employers protect and improve employee income.

Hotel worker Correa: This strike is for hotel workers to get better wages, better health insurance and pensions. Many service workers are bearing double the workload, but their wages have not increased.

The strike happened on the second day of the Labor Day weekend in the United States. This short holiday is one of the busiest holidays for the U.S. tourism industry. Hotel booking data released by the American Automobile Association showed that the number of domestic tourists in the United States during this year's Labor Day holiday increased by 9% compared with last year.

The "Unite Here" union said that if a strike occurs at a booked hotel, tourists are advised to cancel their trips and request a full refund. Some of the hotel groups involved said they are currently working to negotiate a fair agreement with the union.
