☆ Wynn Joins Caesars and MGM in Reaching Tentative Deal to Avoid a Strike by Las Vegas Hotel Workers
  + stars: | 2023-11-10 | by ( Associated Press | Nov. | At A.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +5 min
“Las Vegas needs to be full service," he said last month. But by dawn Friday, the union had secured tentative labor deals with MGM Resorts, Caesars and Wynn Resorts, narrowly averting a sweeping strike at 18 hotel-casinos along the Strip. Before the pandemic, daily room cleanings were routine. Some companies say it's because there are environmental benefits to offering fewer room cleanings, like saving water. A spokesman for Wynn Resorts said they already offer daily room cleanings and did not cut back on that service during the pandemic.

☆ In a Hot Job Market, the Minimum Wage Becomes an Afterthought
  + stars: | 2023-08-23 | by ( Ben Casselman | Lydia Depillis | More About Ben Casselman | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Competition for workers is fierce: The Wendy’s on Mr. Bellman’s drive home from work advertises wages of $18 an hour. New Hampshire is surrounded by states where the minimum wage is above $13, so if Granite State employers tried to offer substantially less, many workers could cross the border for a bigger paycheck. Paige Roberts, president and chief executive of the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce in Mississippi, said she was “nearly laughed out of a job” when she started asking members about paying the minimum wage. Faster hikes in the wage floor in the late 2010s forced up long-stagnant wages in fields like restaurants and retail. And some businesses, such as summer camps, say they are still paying the minimum wage for entry-level workers or those in training.

☆ Out-of-control tip culture meets summer travel: Are you ready for a $19 daily charge for staff tips and $50 'check-in fee'?
  + stars: | 2023-06-02 | by ( Will Gendron | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
On top of a nightly charge of as much as £918, or about $1142, the hotel charges guests a daily £15, or $19, service fee. The Dreamcatcher DW in San Juan, Puerto Rico, is another hotel that charges an undisclosed $15 a night "hotel fee." "We do have a $50 check-in fee that started at the beginning of this year," a spokesperson for Hanalei Bay Resort told Insider. More general resort fees that are tacked onto customer bills are not new. Hrubant says that resort fees started to become standard in major cities in 2018, functioning as an ancillary fee that can "gouge clients."

☆ Microsoft Announces New Harassment Policies in Response to Internal Review
  + stars: | 2022-11-16 | by ( Eric Bellman | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Tuesday’s independent report recommended that Microsoft continue efforts to increase the percentage of women in leadership positions. Microsoft Corp. announced enhanced policies it said are meant to prevent sexual harassment and gender discrimination, in response to an independent review that outlined areas where the software giant should improve. The new policies, made public Tuesday along with a 50-page report by the law firm that conducted the review, followed an unexpected victory by activist shareholders last year when the company’s annual investor meeting passed a proposal demanding greater disclosure around sexual-harassment issues.
