The Chef's Union has successfully negotiated a new five-year contract with the renowned Waldorf Astoria hotel in Las Vegas.

While specific details were not disclosed, the Chef's Union is currently conducting a contract vote. Sources indicate that nearly 300 hotel employees at the Waldorf Astoria in downtown Las Vegas will benefit from the newly reached agreement.

The Chef's Union has actively engaged with major resorts and casino operators in the region, and this agreement marks a significant milestone in their recent successful efforts. A spokesperson for the Chef's Union revealed that the next step is to arrange the approval vote for the contract. Despite having reached agreements with most major resorts and casinos in the area, challenges remain from 20 independent operators, with 9 located on the Strip and 11 in downtown.

Ted Papageorge, Secretary-Treasurer of the Chef's Union, emphasized the importance of securing a fair agreement for the 7,700 employees at these establishments. These venues include well-known properties such as Trump Las Vegas Hotel, Circus Circus, Sahara Las Vegas, and Golden Nugget.

This urgent deadline coincides with the upcoming Super Bowl held at the Allegiant Stadium, adding a sense of urgency to the negotiations. From Resorts World to the Waldorf Astoria, the agreement successfully reached by the Chef's Union aligns with their recent victory with Las Vegas Resorts World last month. It underscores the union's determination to strive for fair wages and improved working conditions for all hotel employees in the city.

As negotiations continue with independent properties yet to reach agreements, the union remains focused on advocating for favorable conditions for its members. Meetings scheduled with Westgate and Trump Las Vegas Hotel indicate the union's active agenda to achieve fair agreements at various locations.

Las Vegas hotel and casino industry union workers spent seven months successfully negotiating new five-year gaming contracts with three prominent casino and entertainment companies, reaching agreements with Wynn Resorts, MGM Resorts International, and Caesars Entertainment under the dedicated efforts of the Chef's and Bartender's Union.

It would be troublesome if a strike occurs.

This is indeed a good solution.

A five-year agreement with mutual guarantees for both parties is quite good.

A strike seems to be unavoidable as well.
