"Included among the largest casino employers negotiating a new five-year contract with Culinary Workers Union Local 226 and facing potential disruption if talks fail. Union leaders say a strike could begin the morning of November 10 and involve tens of thousands of hospitality workers across job categories, potentially overlapping with the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix and other major events on the Strip. The union is seeking stronger safety protocols, better health coverage, and substantial pay increases, and has readied round-the-clock picketing logistics, protest materials, and strike-pay procedures to sustain prolonged action. The resort operator did not immediately respond to requests for comment." - Janna Karel
