Additionally, Culinary Local 226 set up rapid response fairs at the property and the Culinary Academy of Las Vegas for its roughly 1,700 members. They include resource connection to DETR, job fairs and Culinary’s legal, training, health and pension benefits.
Full-time Culinary members are eligible for a severance of $2,000 for every service year worked, union and resort officials said. The union negotiated the terms of the severance during city-wide contract negotiations in 2023, which included some lesser amounts in exchange for recall rights and retaining seniority when a property reopens.
