Hospitality Union Says Up To 90% Of Its Workers Will Lose Their Jobs

A labor union that represents 300,000 hospitality workers said Wednesday it expects upwards of 90% of its members could soon be out of a job due to coronavirus.

The Unite Here labor union represents people who work in hotels, airports and casinos, industries that have been decimated by massive drops in demand due to the outbreak, HuffPost reported.

Unite Here said its lower-bound expectation is that 80% of its workers could be out of a job. If the union’s estimate pans out, some 240,000 to 270,000 hospitality workers would be soon out of work.

“All workers are left with at this moment is an unemployment system that’s overloaded, a sick leave system that may provide checks someday, and rent that’s due on April 1,” the president of a Unite Here chapter in Seattle, Erik Van Rossum, told reporters on a call Wednesday.

It's effectively 100% in Nevada.  All the casinos and restaurants are closed for a month.  Those are Union jobs.
