TORONTO, Aug. 16, 2019 /CNW/ - Great Canadian Gaming Corporation ("Great Canadian") is pleased to announce that certain departments at Casino Woodbine, which are represented by the Public Service Alliance of Canada ("PSAC"), have voted in favour of ratifying a new collective agreement for a four-year term.
"We truly value the ongoing commitment of our team members for making Casino Woodbine a great place to work and visit. Completing this four year deal with PSAC is another building block as we continue our significant development plan to transform Casino Woodbine into a world class entertainment destination," said Geno Iafrate, General Manager, Casino Woodbine.
