The union caught a break at dawn Wednesday when it reached a tentative deal with Caesars that covers 10,000 workers at the company’s flagship Caesars Palace, as well as Flamingo, Harrah’s, Horseshoe, Paris Las Vegas, Planet Hollywood, Cromwell and Linq. The union has been fighting since April for new five-year contracts for members working at 18 properties owned or operated by MGM Resorts, Caesars Entertainment and Wynn Resorts.
The union is scheduled to negotiate with Wynn Resorts on Thursday. But, he said, “I would say this is as close as we’ve come in a long time to an actual strike.”
