Union leaders said the casino’s owners, the prominent Bumb family, decided to outsource food services when they move from their Bering Drive location to a larger site across Highway 101 on First Street. “We will be laying off the employees of these two departments.
“Bay 101 will be ceasing our Food & Beverage and Food Service operations sometime between Septemand September 29, 2017,” stated a July 5 notice sent from the casino’s human resources to the employees. Nearly one hundred Bay 101 food service workers went on strike Friday after being told they’ll lose their jobs when the casino moves into its glitzy new digs in September.
