Hiring fair at Rogers Arena after Canucks terminate contract with concession staff

VANCOUVER – A hiring fair will be staged at Rogers Arena today and tomorrow to fill hundreds of jobs related to the Canucks.

The organization is looking for people to fill hospitality and concession stand positions.

Its existing contract with unionized Aramark employees will be terminated at the end of June.

The union is urging current workers to apply. They were being paid between $13 and $20 an hour, plus benefits.

It is not clear whether the same rates will apply for the new jobs.
