Puget Sound Allied Grocery Stores Bargaining Begins!
/
As union workers, every three years our member Bargaining Team has an opportunity to negotiate with the employer over our wages and working conditions.
Our Bargaining Team met January 21 and 22 to share our core concerns with the Employers. We focused on major issues like addressing under-staffing, U-SCAN usage, and store safety. We will begin to work on our wage, pension, and healthcare proposals with the goal of putting all our issues on the table in March.
Starting strong
On January 17 and 22, workers joined leaflets at Kroger and Albertsons/Safeway stores across the Puget Sound region to raise awareness about our upcoming bargain and under-staffing issues at our stores. Next week, we’ll be back outside our stores leafleting again to support actions with other UFCW Locals.
