Saginaw Chippewa casino workers reject union

printer friendly
Housekeeping staff at the casino owned by the Saginaw Chippewa Tribe of Michigan voted down a union by a 2-1 margin on Thursday.

Nearly all the full- and part-time housekeeping staff at the Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort participated in the election. They voted against joining the Teamsters union by 192 to 88.

The National Labor Relations Board oversaw the election, the second of its kind at a tribal casino. Dealers at the Foxwoods Resort Casino, owned by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation of Connecticut, voted overwhelmingly last month to join the United Auto Workers.
