Hundreds of contracted service workers at National Airport and Dulles walked off the job on strike in April to protest federal labor violations charged against their employer, Huntleigh, including surveilling, interrogating and firing Tujare for lawfully protected activities. “Huntleigh’s coercive behavior towards these workers is against the law and has no place at our airports,” said SEIU 32BJ Vice President Jaime Contreras (at left in photo). “Huntleigh should get the message that they must allow workers to focus on keeping our airports and passengers safe, rather than worrying about being fired at will.” Workers have gone on strike twice against Huntleigh, which is based in Irving,Texas.
