A decision from labor courts Monday ruled a locals casino operator must bargain with Culinary Local 226 after it found the company violated national labor laws and spoiled a 2019 union election.
The National Labor Relations Board decision affirmed an April 2022 finding from a labor court’s administrative law judge that said Red Rock Resorts, the parent company of Station Casinos, engaged in union-busting tactics on multiple occasions through a “carefully crafted corporate strategy intentionally designed” to interfere with employee’s free choice of whether or not to select union representation.

“This decision affirms what we have been saying for years — that Station Casinos violated the law and the company must bargain with the union because of its unlawful actions that corrupted the prospect for a free and fair union election,” Secretary-Treasurer Ted Pappageorge said in a Tuesday statement. “Station Casinos needs to stop breaking the law and treat its workers with respect. This company is an outlier in the Nevada gaming industry, and it will be held accountable by the federal government.”
