YDMA Labor Caucus

A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to UNITE HERE Local 26 and Fenway's concession workers on ratifying their new contract with Aramark!

The contract brings historic gains to workers at America's oldest ballpark. After a year of negotiations, the new union contract provides better wages, clearer staffing protocols, and stronger job protections against automation, such as self-checkout machines.
