Some Las Vegas casinos still face the threat of possible worker strikes, even though the biggest three casino companies locked in new labor deals last month.
This week, the Culinary Union — the body that represents close to 50,000 workers on the Las Vegas Strip — announced labor deals for workers at the Mirage and the Tropicana, which combined have close to 2,000 union employees. The deals come a few weeks after the union agreed to lucrative new labor agreements with Strip juggernauts, MGM Resorts International, Caesars Entertainment, and Wynn Resorts.
However, close to two-dozen casinos — most in Las Vegas — have yet to agree to terms. That list includes Circus Circus, The STRAT, Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, Sahara Las Vegas, and Treasure Island.
