Unions representing roughly 53,000 Las Vegas workers on Tuesday kicked off critical negotiating sessions with hotel and casino operators after its members voted at the end of September to authorize a city-wide strike. The culinary workers union and bartenders union represent workers at properties around the city, including those operated by MGM Resorts International, Caesars Entertainment, and Wynn Resorts. Workers are negotiating for a new five-year contract to boost wages and benefits as tourism in Las Vegas recovers from depressed visitor levels during the pandemic.

"The companies have an opportunity to do the right thing and step up and get a contract done, but if not there could be a strike any time after that," said Ted Pappageorge, Secretary-Treasurer for the culinary union. "Any time after October 6th, there could be a strike," he said. The unions have not yet set a strike deadline, according to a spokesperson. In recent years, the culinary and bartender unions and the casino-and-hotel companies have managed to avoid a strike.
MGM employs about 22,000 workers represented by the unions while Caesars employs 10,000, according to the note.
