Dodgers Concession Workers Won't Strike Around MLB All-Star Game After Negotiations

Concession workers at Dodger Stadium will not strike around the MLB All-Star Game as originally planned after making "substantial progress" in negotiations to achieve higher pay.

"On this basis, Local 11 has agreed not to strike during the All-Star Game and related events," United Here Local 11 and Compass Group/Levy Restaurants said in a joint statement, per ESPN's Alden Gonzalez. "Both parties look forward to a successful All-Star Game and continued contract negotiations."

There are around 1,500 concession workers at Dodger Stadium, per Gonzalez. A vote revealed 99 percent of them favored a strike, the union said in a press release this week.
