On Monday, the local culinary union filed a lawsuit against major Strip casinos for not offering safe working conditions during the pandemic, accusing companies of having “dangerously inadequate” responses to workers contracting COVID-19.
The Cosmopolitan was not mentioned in the lawsuit.
Culinary Worker Union Local 226 represents some — but not all — workers at the Strip property. In December 2015, the culinary union and hotel casino agreed on a four-year contract for the hotel’s nongaming workforce. Union spokeswoman Bethany Khan said the agreement is still in place.
