RAISES AND RETRO PAY FOR MEMBERS OF KINGS SUPERMARKETS AND ACME MARKETS
President Niccollai reported today that several members have inquired as to the status of the raises and retro pay for our Brothers and Sisters of Kings and ACME.
SHORTAGE OF ADEQUATE WORKERS
President Niccollai reported today that as Frontline Employees in the Food Industry, we are experiencing an inability by some of our Union Employers to properly staff departments. This situation is occurring because of several factors:
First, there are people still fearful of returning to work because of COVID-19 issues.
Second, workers, especially women, are unable to return to the job because they have children not fully attending school on a daily basis.
