— June 26, 2023Employees at the Bloomington Eastside Starbucks have announced their decision to unionize with Starbucks Workers United, citing concerns over working conditions and support for the LGBT community. The employees of the Bloomington Eastside store allege that they have faced challenges such as reduced hours and severe understaffing while being expected to meet demanding performance targets. Starbucks Workers United, the union with which the Bloomington Eastside employees have affiliated, will likely face challenges under this law. The move by the Bloomington Eastside employees reflects a growing trend of workers across various industries organizing and advocating for their rights and better working conditions since the COVID pandemic. 🔥During this week of our national Strike With Pride, please welcome the Partners of the Bloomington Eastside store in Bloomington, IN to the movement!
