Local 30 is the hotel and hospitality workers’ union in San Diego. We represent over 6,000 hotel, gaming, and food service workers throughout San Diego County.
OUR MISSION
Empowering workers to earn a living wage and work with Dignity
Our priorities are to negotiate great contracts for our members, empower workers to have a voice on the job and organize non-union workers. We are proud to be a diverse union, comprised largely of immigrants and women. We count many African Americans, Latinos and Asian Americans among our ranks.
