INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Stadium workers near Los Angeles say they have reached a tentative contract deal, averting a strike ahead of the U.S. men’s soccer team’s opening World Cup match Friday.
The union announced the deal at a news conference Tuesday and said workers will vote on whether to ratify the agreement on Wednesday. The union representing 2,000 bartenders, servers, cooks and dishwashers at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, voted last week to authorize a strike after contract talks had stalled with the stadium’s food service provider, Legends Global.
