Daily News | Atlantic City casino workers union reaches tentative settlement with Borgata, three others face Friday strike deadline
ATLANTIC CITY — The Atlantic City casino workers union, Unite Here’s Local 54, reached a tentative agreement Thursday evening with Borgata Hotel & Casino, leaving three more with a strike deadline of Friday and a fifth with a Sunday deadline.
Negotiations were ongoing Thursday with the three properties owned by Caesars Entertainment: Tropicana, Caesars, and Harrah’s. “I don’t think we’re asking for anything outrageous,” said Janey Negron, a 23-year bartender at Tropicana who is a member of the Local 54 bargaining committee. “We’re asking for enough to live on.”
The union is seeking substantial wage increases “at a time of rising industry profits and an ongoing labor shortage.” When asked, “In the past year, have you ever lacked the money to cover any of the following expenses?” 32% reported they lacked money for food, 37% for utilities, and 27% for transportation.
