ILWU Local 142 represents the working families who are the backbone of Hawai‘i’s economy, from longshore workers, hotel and healthcare employees to agricultural and transportation workers. Since 1937, we’ve fought to improve conditions, wages, and rights for our members and their families, working to close the gap of inequality and preserve the dignity of working-class communities in Hawai‘i. With a legacy rooted in solidarity and justice, ILWU Local 142 continues to stand together to uplift workers’ voices, empower communities, and ensure a better future for all.
