Starbucks Corp. baristas in Buffalo, N.Y. voted to form the first labor union at one of the coffee giant’s own U.S. cafes in its 50-year history, as workers across the country push companies for better pay and benefits in a tight labor market.
The result is a victory for cafe workers who had petitioned in August to vote on forming a union to have a direct channel of negotiation with the company, and a blow to Starbucks, which had spent months appealing to Buffalo-area baristas to vote down a labor body.
What the baristas might not understand is bargaining starts with a blank slate, not what you currently have. Starbucks will be aggressive.
Great day for all USA workers! All workers deserve a contract and fair treatment just like all corporate executives have contracts.
