BOSTON/Mission Hill - About 50 people - including affected workers, Service Employees International Union Local 615 staffers, and community allies - marched from the Mission Park apartment development in Boston's Mission Hill neighborhood to the 55-77 Pond Avenue Professional and Medical Suites in Brookline Village on Tuesday to protest the planned firing of over 100 unionized workers by Commercial Cleaning Service, Inc.
Lively pickets were held for about 20 minutes at both locations, which both have contracts with the janitorial services company.
