WHAT IS A GREAT PLACE TO WORK?
Station Casinos has asked you to participate in an employee survey. Before you take the survey, ask yourself these questions:
- HEALTHCARE: Do you have quality health insurance for yourself and your family — like the Culinary Health Plan — that is affordable and requires no paycheck deduction?
- RETIREMENT: Are you going to get a monthly Union pension that is 100% paid for by your company and 100% guaranteed by the U.S. government?
- JOB SECURITY: Do you have a guaranteed workweek so you can’t be sent home whenever the company likes?
- GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE: Can you get help from the Union to resolve workplace problems?
- FAIR PROCESS: Are you respected by the company after you and your co-workers have demanded a fair process to decide whether to unionize?
What are you going to do to make your casino a great place to work?

STATION CASINOS: HEAR THY WORKERS
A special message from Clergy and Laity United for Economic Justice in Las Vegas
We are clergy and lay leaders from across the Las Vegas Valley and we are deeply concerned about working people in our community. We have met with workers from Station Casinos, heard their cries for justice, and we cannot stand by idly. Our faith traditions call on employers to recognize the rights of workers to organize and bargain collectively and the right of their employees to choose freely whether to unionize or not without intimidation or coercion.
Unfortunately, Station Casinos has been found to have broken federal labor law eighty-eight (88) times, according to two National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) Administrative Law Judges. That is the largest number of unfair labor practices committed by a single employer in the history of Nevada gaming. The company appealed the judges’ recommended decisions, and, last October, the NLRB in Washington, D.C. completely denied the company’s appeals and even found two more violations. Workers at Station Casinos simply want to ensure their rights are honored and they can provide for themselves and their families. This is a struggle about human dignity, one that should come to a just resolution.
Station Casinos, God hears your workers’ cries for Justice. All of our faith traditions support the rights of workers to freely organize or not without intimidation or coercion. We pray you soften your hearts, hear your workers, and agree to a fair process.

The Las Vegas Standard
The following are Las Vegas hotel-casinos where workers got to decide — legally and through a fair process that was free from management intimidation and interference — whether to deal with employers together through the Union.

| Caesars Palace | Circus Circus | Encore | Excalibur |
| Flamingo | Four Seasons | Harrah's | Hilton Grand Vacations-Elara |

Why won’t Station Casinos agree to a fair process? Why won’t they give you the same respect?

IT’S OUR TURN NOW!
Since we had our last wage increase in 2007:
- Station Casinos top insiders got paid more than $660 million in cash by borrowing against the company.
- The company fired 2,800 workers from 2008 to 2010 to save money, while most of the executives kept their jobs.
- Now the company is spending millions of dollars on TV attack ads while ignoring our demand for a fair process.
Since 2007,Union casino workers on the Strip:
- Got total wage increases of $3.08 an hour for non-tipped and $1.51 for tipped.
- Continue to enjoy the best healthcare plan in Las Vegas with no monthly premium out of their paychecks.
- Continue to have a pension paid for by their employers.
IT’S OUR TIME NOW! WE DESERVE BETTER!

Come to Support the Fasters!
UPDATE: On Tuesday, the fasters will break the fast outside Red Rock. They have been making a great SACRIFICE FOR ALL OF US. Let’s be there to celebrate their courage and commitment!
COME TO THE RALLY AT RED ROCK at 6:00 PM on Tuesday!
A majority of us at Station Casinos who work in Culinary and Bartenders unions’ classifications have now signed a petition calling for a fair process.
A fair process would let workers make their own decisions as to whether to unionize in a way that is free from management interference, intimidation, bullying, or litigation.
The company has ignored our demand.
Starting on April 18, thirteen of our co-workers will do a 7-day fast outside Palace Station to draw attention to our fight for dignity and respect. They will be joined by union casino workers and members of the Las Vegas clergy.
The fast starts at 10:00 AM on Wednesday (map and schedule). Come to support the fasters!

We Are Not Second-Class Workers!
On March 22, we delivered our petition for a FAIR PROCESS to the company. A MAJORITY of our co-workers in Culinary & Bartenders Unions’ classifications have signed it. Instead of respecting our signatures, Station Casinos is telling us to do an “election” instead.
Workers at all these other casinos in Las Vegas got a fair process to decide whether they wanted union representation:
| Aria Bally's Bellagio Bill's Gamblin' Hall Caesars Palace Circus Circus Elara, Hilton Grand Vacations Encore Excalibur Flamingo Four Seasons Harrah's Hilton Grand Vacations-Flamingo LV Hilton Grand Vacations-LVH Hilton Grand Vacations-LV Strip LVH |
Luxor Mandalay Bay Margaritaville Las Vegas MGM Grand Mirage Monte Carlo New York-New York Paris Las Vegas Planet Hollywood Rio Riviera Stratosphere The Signature at MGM Grand TI Tropicana Vdara Hotel |
Wynn Las Vegas Binion's El Cortez The D of Las Vegas Four Queens Fremont Golden Gate Golden Nugget Las Vegas Club Main Street Station Plaza Hotel & Casino Eldorado Jerry’s Nugget Rainbow Club Sahara Saloon |
Station Casinos properties where workers have had a fair process: NONE.
Why won’t Station Casinos give us the same respect?
