The United Center ownership is making sure that workers don't have to worry about their wages during the missed 14 games of the regular season.

The games were suspended because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"The United Center ownership and the Chicago Bulls and Chicago Blackhawks, on behalf of our front offices and players, will pay day-of-game employees through the remainder of the originally scheduled season," Reinsdorf and Wirtz said in a statement. "Our employees, whether they be front office staff, or our approximately 1,200 day-of- game staff, are family, and we will navigate this unprecedented situation together."
