Niagara’s tourism workers face tough road ahead: report

From Niagara This Week:

According to Robert Hickey, the Niagara tourism sector faces some serious challenges with the decline in American visitors.

In turn, the workers at the region’s many hotels face tough roads ahead with problems with low wages, increased seasonal positions and risks of being injured on the job. Hickey, a professor of policy studies at Queen’s University, said the key to improving conditions is through workers unions.

Hickey was on hand April 19 at the McBain Community Centre to present a report outlining the challenges and opportunities for improving work conditions in Niagara’s hotel sector.
