"Wells Fargo Center Food Workers Strike Impacts 76ers Game"
Food service workers at Wells Fargo Center in South Philadelphia, employed by Aramark, have gone on strike seeking better wages and health benefits. The strike, affecting only Wells Fargo Center, is the first time Aramark employees have gone on strike with Unite Here in Philadelphia. The union is seeking a standard minimum wage and health benefits for the hundreds of Aramark employees at all three South Philadelphia stadiums. Negotiations have been ongoing since December, and the union is pushing for one contract for all three facilities. Aramark has stated it has contingency plans in place to ensure services are not interrupted, and the situation is ongoing.
