New Overtime Rules Mean Price Drop for Shows at Philadelphia Convention Center By Marcia Gelbart, The Philadelphia Inquirer
So far, anecdotes from unions, building officials and association planners suggest that there are conflicting views about whether the agreement is improving Philadelphia's image as a labor-friendly town.
Behaviorial issues remain, from one or two fistfights that have broken out in recent months among the workers, to a private meeting that had to be held just last week between the center's chief executive officer and carpenters' union officials about who decides which individual workers are assigned to conventions.
Ed Coryell Sr., business manger for the carpenters' union -- the last holdouts to the agreement -- would not comment for this story.------------------------------------------- posted 6:41 AM :: reference link ::
