Three more Las Vegas properties have come to an agreement with the Culinary Workers Union on a new five-year contract for hospitality workers, the union announced tonight.
The 780 workers at Circa Las Vegas, Golden Gate and The D — all properties owned in part by Derek Stevens — are the latest to secure a new deal, the union said.
The union since November has come to an agreement on contracts with resorts up and down the Resort Corridor, starting with major resort companies of Caesars Entertainment, MGM Resorts International and Wynn Resorts.
New deals have also previously been secured for workers at the following independent resorts: Circus Circus, Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas, Hilton Grand Vacations, Treasure Island, the Mirage; the Strat, Tropicana, Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas, Westgate Las Vegas and the Plaza.
Union leadership is calling the contracts the best in history, saying everything from wages to working conditions are enhanced.
With the Super Bowl looming next week, the union is still working to finish its contract talks with a handful of properties.
A strike deadline of Friday is still in place for negotiations with Sahara and Virgin Las Vegas, officials said.
The strike deadline has been pushed back to Monday for talks with Rio, and downtown properties Binion’s, Downtown Grand, El Cortez, Four Queens, Fremont, Golden Nugget and Main Street.
