A search for $CP$ violation in charmless three-body $\Xi_b^- \to p K^- K^-$ decays is performed using $pp$ collision data recorded with the LHCb detector, corresponding to integrated luminosities of $1\,\text{fb}^{-1}$ at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 7\,\text{TeV}$, $2\,\text{fb}^{-1}$ 8\,\text{TeV}$ and 13\,\text{TeV}$. good description phase-space distribution obtained an amplitude model containing contributions from $\Sigma(1385)$, $\Lambda(1405)$, $\Lambda(1520)$, $\Lambda(1670)$, $\Sigma(1775)$ $\Sigma(1915)$ resonances. The allows $CP$-violation effects, which are found be consistent zero. branching fractions \Sigma(1385) K^-$, \Lambda(1405) \Lambda(1520) \Lambda(1670) \Sigma(1775) \Sigma(1915) also reported. In addition, upper limit placed on product ratios $\Omega_b^-$ $\Xi_b^-$ fragmentation $\Omega_b^- fractions.
