Starbucks workers across the U.S. are planning their largest-ever strike on Red Cup Day, with thousands of unionized baristas from over 200 stores walking off the job. The strike is a result of a two-year labor dispute and the company's alleged refusal to negotiate fairly with the union. The strike, organized by Workers United, is expected to affect hundreds of Starbucks stores and comes after a smaller strike in June 2023. The union accuses the coffee giant of failing to provide respectable working conditions and a contract for workers who began organizing in 2021. Starbucks' stock fell nearly 1% following the strike announcement.
Why Starbucks workers are going on strike: “We see that you're still not bargaining and we won't work unless you provide us respectable conditions to work in,” says Moe Mills, a 25-year-old shift supervisor based in St. Louis https://t.co/TXmR0hOGdv
