  • Strategic Integration, Contract
    STRATEGIC INTEGRATION, CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION, AND COMPREHENSIVE CONTRACT CAMPAIGN EFFECTIVENESS: A CASE STUDY OF THE CULINARY WORKERS UNION, HERE LOCAL 226’S 2002 COMPREHENSIVE CONTRACT CAMPAIGN A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science by Paul Everett Hayes January 2006 © 2006 Paul Everett Hayes ABSTRACT This thesis is a case study of the comprehensive contract campaign that the Culinary Union, HERE Local 226 utilized in its 2002 round of negotiations with casino operators in Las Vegas. The focus of this study is on how the comprehensive contract campaign strategy used by the Culinary Union increased the local’s bargaining power in the negotiations. This case study links the success of the 2002 comprehensive contract campaign to the local’s prior practices, long-term strategies, as well as its organizational structure and culture. This case study also examines how the political, social, and economic context of Las Vegas’s casino industry influenced the Culinary Union’s comprehensive contract campaign. It describes the interactive relationship between these external contextual factors, the local’s strategic choices, and industrial relations outcomes in Las Vegas’s casino industry. This case study describes how the Culinary Union, by using the organizing model of contract administration, created an organizational culture and structure that lead to increases in the quality and quantity of rank-and-file participation in the union, and how this benefited the union in its 2002 comprehensive contract campaign. In addition to citing specific examples from the 2002 contract campaign itself, this case study uses the industrial relations literature relating to union commitment and participation, in order to support this argument.

Garcia* ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has presented unique challenges for immigrant workers many of whom occupy jobs most at risk in the pandemic: heath care, janitorial services, and mass transit. This Article encourages the extension of human rights instruments protecting health and safety in the workplace to all workers, particularly immigrant workers. Garcia analyzes the options available for workers who confront unsafe working conditions under existing law. Expanding the language of “human rights” will allow for greater scrutiny of actions taken by the government and employers. Garcia encourages statutory changes to OSHA and the NRLA, test cases, filing complaints under trade agreements, and lodging complaints with the ILO in order to keep all workers safe.

    Article Urban Studies 2015, Vol. 52(9) 1683–1701 Ó Urban Studies Journal Limited 2014 Learning from Las Vegas: Unions Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav and post-industrial urbanisation DOI: 10.1177/0042098014536787 usj.sagepub.com Mia Gray University of Cambridge, UK James DeFilippis Rutgers University, USA Abstract Las Vegas is often portrayed as the apogee of postmodern urbanism, but we argue that you can- not understand Las Vegas without understanding the role of unions in the City’s political econ- omy. By focusing on the social relations surrounding workplace, class, and gender we highlight alternative versions of Las Vegas’ history. The Culinary Union, a UNITE HERE local, has intro- duced new institutional forms and played an active role in the local growth coalition. They have set standards around work intensity, training, and job ladders. Highlighting the ability of the union to affect these issues contributes to a counter-narrative about the City which stresses the agency of labour to actively produce Las Vegas’ cultural and economic landscapes. The postmodern nar- rative about Las Vegas hides these important lessons. Learning from Las Vegas can transform issues of signs and symbolism to issues of union organising and institutional structures in the post-industrial economy. Keywords institutional innovation, labour organising, local growth coalitions, place dependence, postmo- dern, UNITE HERE Received August 2013; accepted April 2014 Each city is an archetype rather than a proto- urban form has been treated as a main char- type, an exaggerated example from which to acter, in and of itself.

    MEMORANDUM TO: Interested Parties FROM: Correct The Record DATE: February 18, 2016 SUBJECT: Bernie’s Dirty Tricks: The Vermont Socialist's Troubling History of Campaign Shenanigans “We’re running a clean campaign. We don’t need dirty tricks.” Bernie Sander’s campaign manager Jeff Weaver said that two months ago. This was in the midst of the Sanders campaign’s exploitation of a data breach to access Clinton voter data, and right before they began a stream of misleading endorsements. These kinds of tactics may be damning, but they are nothing new for a Bernie Sanders campaign. The irony may have been lost on Weaver at the time, but we’re here to make sure you aren’t left out. Bernie Sanders has a long history of dirty tricks – we’re talking a troubling thirty years of campaign shenanigans. Watch this video to see Bernie’s more recent dirty tricks, and see below for a brief history of Bernie’s shady campaign tactics. A Brief History of Bernie Sanders’ Campaign Shenanigans 2016 Democratic Primary Data Breach Bernie Sanders staffers exploited a temporary glitch in the DNC’s voter database to save lists created by Hillary Clinton’s campaign. [Bloomberg, 12/18/15] LCVA & AARP Bernie Sanders’s campaign distributed mailers in Iowa that included a photo of AARP members wearing shirts with the slogan of the group’s Social Security campaign. AARP’s Iowa chapter had to clarify publicly that it is not supporting Bernie Sanders. [Newsweek, 1/28/16] Bernie Sanders’s campaign used the logo of the League of Conservation Voters on a mailer.
