Martin Gusman
LEC President
artin began his career as a Hawaiian Airlines Flight Attendant in 1986. Shortly after moving his family back to Honolulu from Seattle in 1991, he started doing Union work by joining the Grievance Committee. Martin is driven by a sense of fairness and respect. Both were painfully lacking when Hawaiian was struggling financially in the 1990s. He took on a number of roles, including being a member of the Negotiating Committee and the Council 43 (HNL) LEC President. He served as the In-Flight PBS administrator for 12 years, which allowed him to ensure that our contractual provisions were being correctly applied to Flight Attendants’ PBS schedules. In 2016, he rejoined the Negotiating Committee and is the current Honolulu LEC President.
Martin was born on O’ahu, grew up in ‘Aiea, and graduated from Damien High School. He has an Associate’s degree in Computer Science. Martin and his wife, Arlene, have been married for 36 years and have two children.
