Early Edition with Kate Hawkesby

An MIQ hotel has promised workers the living wage once it goes back to hospitality. Managed Isolation and Quarantine will be a four hotel operation by the end of June, but there's been concerns they'd be dropping back to a lower pay rate. Rydges Auckland has confirmed it will pay workers the Living Wage of $22.75 permanently. Unite Union National Secretary John Crocker told Tim Dower they're now trying to get the other hotels to follow suit. He's optimistic about some, but not others. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
