The union said the deals are pending approval by the rank and file. Terms of the contracts weren’t immediately released. That includes better job security, working conditions and safety. Over seven months of bargaining, the workers said they were willing to strike over that issue, which underscored the big issues that the union said it wanted to address for workers across the board in their first contract since the pandemic.
The union says the contracts will provide more than 35,000 workers at 18 properties with historic pay raises and other unprecedented wins, like mandatory daily room cleanings. Experts said a strike by workers at the companies would have been historic, especially as hundreds of thousands of people were expected to attend next week Formula 1’s debut on the Las Vegas Strip.
