ROC 2009

The restaurant industry is currently one of the largest private sector employers nationwide and one of the fastest growing industries in most regions across the country. Unfortunately, while there is a real potential for obtaining living wages in this industry, too many workers suffer from low wages and poor working conditions.

ROC-United is a national restaurant workers' organization, comprised of restaurant worker organizations across the country. In 3 years of existence ROC United has already developed restaurant worker organizations in Chicago, Michigan, New York, Maine, New Orleans, Miami and Washington DC.
