Visitors seated at Paris Las Vegas’ outdoor cafes with tables facing the Strip had a front row seat as more than 200 Culinary Union members picketed Thursday morning, demanding the resort’s parent company provide workers with a fair labor agreement to replace their expired contracts.
The informational picket lines, one of three organized on the Strip by Culinary Workers Local 226, was designed to send a message to Caesars Entertainment, which operates Paris and the adjoining Horseshoe Las Vegas. Culinary officials say the two sides are far apart on the union’s calls for higher pay, better benefits and lighter workloads for housekeepers.
