Cook County has no hotel worker retention ordinance comparable to Los Angeles' AB 1482 hotel rules. Illinois state law does not require successor hotel employers to retain incumbent workers. Chicago's Hotel Workers Sexual Harassment Ordinance covers only safety, not retention.
Unlike Los Angeles County (which requires hotels in covered cities to retain incumbent workers for 90 days after ownership change under LACC 8.205) or Chicago's panic-button protections, Cook County imposes no hotel worker retention duty on successor employers. Illinois does not have a worker adjustment retraining law for hospitality acquisitions beyond the federal WARN Act (60-day notice for closures or mass layoffs at 100+ employee facilities under 29 USC 2101). Chicago's Hotel Workers Sexual Harassment Ordinance (Mun. Code 4-6-180, 2018) requires panic buttons and anti-harassment training for hotel housekeepers but does not address retention. Hotel workers in Cook are typically organized through UNITE HERE Local 1.
There is no county worker retention violation. Federal WARN Act violations (no 60-day notice) trigger back pay and benefits for affected workers. Chicago panic button violations: $250-$500 per day under city code.
