Casino Windsor Lays Off 239 Workers
Blaming a smoking ban in the casino, and lower revenues, Casino Windsor has laid off a total of 239 workers, including 23 non-union workers and 206 unionized workers.
The casino's revenues have dropped from $440 million to $320 million annually in the past year.
A $400 million expansion, including a new hotel tower, is to open in 2008. The expansion is expected to create additional job opportunities.
