“The Teamsters Union and Bally's Black Hawk have come together on an agreement that puts working people first. This is how you raise standards across an entire industry – by giving workers the freedom to unionize without fear,” said Teamsters General President Sean M. O'Brien. “Bally's workers are the heart and soul of the company. Now they'll have the ability to secure the protection, strength, and long-term benefits that come with being Teamsters as they continue to ensure Bally's remains successful for generations to come.”
Under the new card check process, Bally's workers in Black Hawk, Colorado, will be able to choose union representation with the Teamsters simply by signing authorization cards. Once a majority of workers in a given unit sign cards, Bally's will automatically recognize the group as Teamsters.
“Our people are at the heart of everything we do,” said Soo Kim, Chairman of Bally's Corporation. “This agreement reflects our commitment to listening, learning, and working together with the Teamsters to support our employees and the communities where we live and operate.”
Through this cooperative framework, Bally's and the Teamsters will continue to encourage problem-solving and joint progress for casino workers, ensuring shared goals of stronger workplaces, thriving communities, and long-term opportunities remain at the center of these joint efforts.
