Unions in the auto, rail, healthcare and other industries have kept companies off balance in recent months with labor actions. The unions are among the most powerful in the United States, representing 53,000 hospitality workers in Las Vegas. Oct 9 (Reuters) – Thousands of Las Vegas workers will picket MGM Resorts and Caesars Entertainment casinos on Thursday for the first time in nearly two decades, the unions said, as they contemplate a possible strike.
One highlight is the Upside Down Room, where ‘everything seems to defy gravity – that is, until guests turn their photos upside down and observe the only thing defying gravity is themselves’. The museum says: ‘When rotated 90 degrees, an ordinary room with a few construction tricks plays with guests’ perception of reality.’ The Culinary Workers and Bartenders Unions seek a new five-year contract with improved wages and benefits as casino operators post record profits. In prior negotiations, a strike threat was enough to spur a deal, but these talks have been slow, union representatives said on Monday.
Pappageorge said that negotiations were “very disappointing” and the companies did not make substantive wage proposals. The unions are demanding higher wages, stronger protections against new technology that may threaten jobs, lower housekeeping quotas and improved safety. The museum says: ‘It is an optical illusion in which the observer’s mind abruptly changes the perspective of a picture or a shape.’ Visitors can also enter the Ambiguous Shapes Room, a ‘casino slot machine-themed exhibit’ where objects can be rotated in front of a mirror to appear different from two perspectives.
MGM has said that every 1% increase in wages would add about $10 million to labor costs, according to Truist analyst Barry Jonas. He estimated wage increases could cost Caesars $40 million to $60 million a year and double that for MGM based on their employee count.
