Alba Acosta, a banquet server at Red Rock casino, said she had worked her way up over 17 years to the “B” list that can get about 30 hours per week in shifts. But post-pandemic, she was rehired as an on-call worker. Acosta said she’s “lucky” to get one shift in a week.
“They promised to give so much such as free health care, but now with my limited hours, I am not qualified to receive it,” Acosta said. “Its benefits are only for full-time employees, which pre-pandemic I was. One of (Station Casinos’) most famous quotes is, ‘We love locals,’ but it’s refusing to give back what really matters: our jobs.”
