About 2,000 Starbucks workers will stage a one-day strike at more than 100 stores today.
The union says it is striking to protest the retaliation taken against union supporters nationwide. It is also protesting what it characterizes as the company’s refusal to bargain with the union on a first labor deal. There are 264 stores that have voted in favor of union representation. But no contracts have yet been negotiated even at stores which voted nearly a year ago.
It’s not clear how many of the stores affected by Thursday’s action will be able to stay open during the strike. The protest comes on “Red Cup” day at Starbucks, when it gives out reusable holiday cups with certain drink purchases that entitle customers to discounts and extra bonus points on future purchases. “Culturally Red Cup Day is an important day at Starbucks. People do go crazy over it,” said Keeling.
