Employees at N.J. Starbucks location launch unionization effort

Employees at a Starbucks in Hopewell Township announced Tuesday morning they are launching a unionization effort — the first New Jersey location to do so, following two recent successful efforts in Buffalo, New York.on Twitter addressed to company president and CEO Kevin Johnson, detailing their frustrations with understaffing and overwork, which they say spurred their unionization efforts.

Organizing committee member Sara Mughal said many of the location’s 25 employees have shared similar frustrations of insufficient staffing and safety concerns with“The way that we run the day, it’s scheduled in such a way that if one person calls out, it’s really a struggle for everyone else,” Mughal told NJ Advance Media. “And that’s not really fair to us, or to our customers.”

Not a fan of that brand but something must be going on in there for workers to look into their rights. American workers have the right to form a union.

NoseGrindstoned They will live to regret it!

You are slinging coffee. If you think it’s that terrible of a work place then find another job. I think there is about 10 million available. I am not diminishing any job but you are not forced to work there . At least for the moment.
