Justice for Janitors is a movement of janitors uniting for the best working conditions. It is part of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). Justice for Janitors started in Denver, Colorado in 1985. 200,000 plus janitors in more than 28 cities throughout the United States have united in SEIU and won family health insurance, livable wages, full-time work, and better working conditions. This movement of low-wage, mostly immigrant workers has earned broad-based support from the public as well as religious, political and community leaders.

Currently, janitors in Houston, Texas are organizing through the Justice for Janitors campaigns. In July 2005 Houston janitors secured a check and neutrality agreement from the five largest cleaning contractors in Houston, a historic victory in a right-to-work state.

In November 2005 four of the five contractors recognized SEIU as representing a majority of each contractor's workers, and in December the fifth contractor did as well.
