Overview

• Workers at Alamo Drafthouse locations in Brooklyn and lower Manhattan ended their 58-day strike after securing a deal with management.
• The agreement ensures that all 70 laid-off employees will be rehired and have their accrued benefits, including paid time off and seniority, fully restored.
• The strike began in February after the union alleged that the layoffs were conducted in bad faith during ongoing contract negotiations.
• The union, NYC Alamo United, affiliated with UAW Local 2179, plans to resume broader labor contract negotiations with management on April 16.
• Union representatives expressed hope that their victory would inspire other service industry workers to organize and fight for improved labor conditions.
