UNITE HERE is a union for hotel, restaurant, and hospitality workers. Hotel workers were historically represented by the Hotel and Restaurant Employees (HERE). From 2004-2010, HERE merged with the garment workers union UNITE to form UNITE HERE, then split off while retaining the name UNITE HERE. Southern California HERE locals #11 (Los Angeles), #814 (Santa Monica), #681 (Orange County) have merged into one local (#11). Currently, UNITE HERE local 11 represents workers in southern California and Arizona.
