The pact with Caesars came after 20 hours of bargaining that began Tuesday and stretched into Wednesday morning.Ĭaesars said in a statement that the agreement 'recognizes the integral contributions our team members have made to the success we have seen in Las Vegas over the last few years,' with meaningful wage increases and opportunities for growth tied to plans to bring more union jobs to the Strip. The union caught a break at dawn Wednesday when it reached a tentative deal with Caesars that covers 10,000 workers at the company's flagship Caesars Palace, as well as at the Flamingo, Harrah's, Horseshoe, Paris Las Vegas, Planet Hollywood, Cromwell and Linq resorts. Since April, the union has been fighting for new five-year contracts for its members, who work at 18 properties owned or operated by MGM Resorts, Caesars Entertainment and Wynn Resorts. Experts said that move would have been catastrophic for the Las Vegas Strip. The union had threatened to begin a strike in the pre-dawn hours Friday at properties along the Strip if negotiations failed.

In a statement, Wynn Resorts said it was pleased to reach an agreement that “fulfills our shared goal of providing outstanding benefits and overall compensation to our employees in a work environment that is second to none.” The agreement covers employees at the company’s flagship hotel-casino and Encore Resorts.Ĭhristine Cook, a uniform control attendant at Wynn Resorts, said in a statement provided by the union that her favorite part about the new contract 'is the wage increases and the retroactive pay, because it will help my family and me have a better future and achieve our dreams.” The Las Vegas hotel workers union reached a deal with Wynn Resorts, following agreements with MGM Resorts International, the largest employer on the Las Vegas Strip, and Caesars Entertainment.
