In a victory for labor, a 50-person negotiating committee of San Francisco Giants concessions workers has agreed to a tentative deal with the team's subcontractor for food services, Bon Appetit. This news comes nearly a month after Giants concessions workers from the Local 2 union overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike if their demands were not met.
The deal — which concessions workers will formally vote on Thursday and is widely expected to pass — guarantees Oracle Park workers a retroactive $3 an hour raise, a separate, retroactive $1.50 an hour hazard pay bonus for 2020 and 2021, additional yearly raises that will ultimately total a $7 an hour increase by 2024, as well as significant improvements to health care and pension plans.
