Organizers say the strike involves more than 1,000 workers, making it the biggest multiday work stoppage ever by Starbucks Workers United, the labor group that’s prevailed in elections at about 270…
By Josh Eidelson | Bloombergstarted a three-day strike on Friday, saying the company isn’t bargaining fairly with recently unionized stores.
The walkout underlines the rising tension between the coffee giant and its union employees, who have tried to secure a collective-bargaining agreement for more than a year without success. Shares of Starbucks fell as much as 1.7% in New York on Friday. The company didn’t immediately respond to inquiries about the work stoppage.
However, the pace of new Starbucks unionization petitions has slowed in recent months, as workers allege the company has been retaliating in stores and stonewalling them at the bargaining table. Starbucks Workers United won its first election at a café in Buffalo, New York, a year ago, and those workers still don’t have a union contract.
