Hyatt and UNITE HERE Local 26 say they've reached an agreement under which the hotel chain will pay $1 million to 100 workers terminated at the Hyatt Boston Harbor, Hyatt Regency Boston and Hyatt Regency Cambridge hotels in 2009 - and will give those workers priority for future job openings at the hotels.

“We never forgot the courage these workers showed by speaking up when they were let go,” said Brian Lang, president of UNITE HERE Local 26. “Hyatt is showing courage by doing the right thing today.”

Unfortunately, Hyatt doesn't value its room cleaning staff one cent above minimum wage, because what they've done is to outsource all the housekeeping jobs to a minimum wage company that provides no benefits to its workers. If that's the priority Hyatt places on its room cleaning services, do you want to stay there again?

Here's a link to the WBZ story on the layoffs.
