UNITE HERE victory at airport Seattle-headquartered UNITE HERE Local 8 is reporting a union or- ganizing win among food service workers at the Portland International Airport. HMSHost, which runs concessions under a contract with the Port of Port- land, agreed to voluntarily recognize the union if a majority of its 176 Port- land airport employees signed union cards. On Sept. 30, a neutral arbitrator determined that a majority did sign cards. UNITE HERE represents thou- sands of employees in airport conces- sions and airline catering industries at airports in the U.S. and Canada. HMSHost — formerly known as Host Marriott Services Corporation — is a subsidiary of the Italian multina- tional Autogrill.

CORRECTIONS In the Oct. 3 issue, the article “Union uncovers wage theft at Pearl District apartment” contained several errors. The article said developer Robert Ball “ran for Portland mayor in 2008” and “teamed up” with Eugene developers Don Woolley and Tom Connor on The Parker apartment proj- ect. Ball considered a run for Portland mayor in 2007, but was not formally a candidate. And a spokesperson for Ball said Ball’s company, Astor Pacific, purchased the land from a company at which Woolley and Connor are the principal officers, but that Woolley and Connor were not otherwise involved in the project. Also, the article listed Prairie Electric as an example of a union subcontractor employed by gen- eral contractor Lorentz Bruun. Prairie is nonunion. OCTOBER 17, 2014
