Fenway Park concessions staff threatens strike during upcoming Red Sox homestand
As the Red Sox prepare for their next home series, food service workers at Fenway Park have announced they’ll strike if a new agreement isn’t reached by noon Friday. Represented by UNITE HERE Local 26, the staff—employed by Aramark—are demanding better wages, protections against automation, fairer scheduling, and higher tips for premium service roles. The union framed the issue as one that affects not only labor conditions but also Boston’s broader community.
