Friday for 5,000 workers at two properties, but that’s unlikely given the unions’ tentative agreements with Caesars and MGM Resorts. The union had threatened to begin a strike in the pre-dawn hours Friday if negotiations failed, which could have been catastrophic, especially as the Las Vegas Strip expects to host hundreds of thousands of people for next week’s Formula 1 debut.Ī walkout still could happen on a much smaller scale if the union and Wynn Resorts don’t reach a deal by 5 a.m. “We’re pleased to have reached a tentative agreement that averts a strike, gives our Culinary Union employees a well-earned boost to pay and benefits and reduces workloads - all while continuing to provide opportunities for growth and advancement,” Hornbuckle said in a statement. MGM Resorts CEO Bill Hornbuckle said employees “are the heart of our company and the driving force in the success we’ve enjoyed in Las Vegas post-pandemic. Other wins are housekeeping workload reductions, improved safety, and “the ability to have a say in how technology impacts our work,” he said. “Workers have secured significant raises every year for the next five years, preserved our great union health insurance, union pension, and comprehensive union benefits,” Pappageorge said. “After seven months of negotiations, we are proud to say that this is the best contract and economic package we have ever won in our 88-year-history,” Ted Pappageorge, the union’s secretary-treasurer, said in a statement.

The Culinary Workers Union announced the tentative five-year agreement today that it said covers about 25,000 workers at the Aria, Bellagio, Excalibur, Luxor, Mandalay Bay, MGM Grand, New York-New York and Park MGM.

LAS VEGAS > The Las Vegas hotel workers union reached a deal with MGM Resorts International, the largest employer on the Las Vegas Strip, on the heels of its breakthrough agreement with Caesars Entertainment, saying the agreement provides significant raises and safety improvements.
