The Culinary Union has been negotiating a new contract for thousands of workers and the talks haven’t been going well.
Following six months of negotiations with MGM International, Wynn Resorts, and Caesars Entertainment and two major demonstrations on the Strip, a Culinary Union strike could happen in the coming weeks. Right now, the union is in the middle of another round of bargaining sessions.
On Friday, leaders met with Caesars Entertainment. Secretary-Treasurer Ted Pappageorge said they presented their proposals to Caesars all morning. We caught up with Culinary Union leaders virtually during an afternoon break.
“The company is considering our proposal. They will come back with their own proposals. We are hoping to make movement,” Pappageorge said.
