Fenway Park Employees Vote Overwhelmingly to Authorize Labor Strike

  • Hundreds of Aramark employees at Boston's 113-year-old Fenway Park voted overwhelmingly on Sunday to authorize a labor strike through June 29th.
  • The strike authorization follows the expiration of the workers' contract with Aramark on December 31, 2024, and ongoing unsuccessful bargaining since early 2025.
  • The voting workers include cooks, cashiers, beer sellers, and souvenir vendors demanding citywide-standard wages, fair scheduling, increased gratuities, and limits on automation technology.
  • The union reported a 95% yes vote and highlighted that Fenway workers earn under $20 an hour, about $10 less than comparable jobs, with Carlos Aramayo stating, "It's time to bring all Fenway workers' wages up to standard."
  • If a strike occurs, UNITE HERE Local 26 plans to ask the public not to purchase food or beverages inside the ballpark, signaling further pressure on Aramark and Fenway management to settle the contract.
