Trump Entertainment Resorts asked a bankruptcy court judge Monday for permission to give severance and accrued vacation pay to hundreds of former Trump Plaza workers.
The company says union workers are entitled to the payments under Local 54 of UNITE-HERE’s collective bargaining agreement with the casino, which closed in September.
About 354 Local 54 Plaza employees are eligible for severance payments totaling about $531,000, Trump Entertainment Resorts said in a court filing Monday. Each of those employees should receive a one-time, $1,500 payment, the company said.
And about 312 former Plaza workers are eligible to be paid for vacation time they accrued prior to the closing, the company said. Those payments total about $55,000.
