Casino major MGM Resorts’ (NYSE:MGM) tentative union contract has received mixed responses from unionized workers, according to Clicondetroit. While workers at MotorCity Casino and Hollywood Casino voted in favor of the deal, workers at MGM Grand voted it down.
The unionized workers voted separately at the three properties and the Detroit Casino Council noted that “more bargaining dates” would be lined up for negotiations. Previously, MGM officials had pointed out during the bargaining process that this would be the biggest pay hike in its history and responded to the workers’ reaction to the five-year labor deal as “a very disappointing result.”
The Detroit casino workers’ strike began on October 17. The new deal includes pay hikes, benefits that could help close the gap in cost of living, lower workloads, and other job protections.
