Fenway concession workers are preparing to strike for the first time in the park's history, urging Red Sox owner John Henry to intervene in their wage negotiations with Aramark. An open letter signed by over 45 workers questions why they are paid less than similar positions at other locations. They are asking Henry to push Aramark to present reasonable proposals acknowledging their value. The dispute has attracted attention from Red Sox players and Senator Bernie Sanders, who has requested good faith negotiations.
Members of Unite Here Local 26 express their frustration in an open letter to John Henry, asking why Fenway workers are treated as second-class compared to others across the country. They urge Henry to influence Aramark to bring reasonable proposals that acknowledge the workers' contributions to Fenway's success.
The open letter has gained support from over 45 signers, emphasizing the need for Henry and Red Sox President Sam Kennedy to intervene in the ongoing disputes with Aramark. The workers claim to face significantly lower compensation compared to their counterparts at other venues.
