WeWork Will Pay NYC Cleaners $15 An Hour, Stop Using Contractors

The people who cleaned the company’s shared New York City office spaces, home to dozens of small and startup businesses, were recently told they would lose their jobs, after their employer terminated its contract with WeWork just a week after they had protested for better pay.

Today they were invited to reapply for their positions, now titled “community service associates” and “community service leads,” and become directly employed by the $10 billion startup, rather than a contractor.
