Summary
Over 18,000 unionized Costco employees, represented by the Teamsters, voted overwhelmingly to authorize a nationwide strike if a new contract is not reached by January 31.
Workers demand “fair wages and benefits,” citing Costco’s $254 billion in annual revenue and a 135% profit increase since 2018.
Practice pickets have already begun nationwide.
Union leaders warn that failure to reach a “historic, industry-leading agreement” could result in a strike, with workers emphasizing their role as the “backbone” of the company’s success.
This righ here, Costco is better than the competition, they still leave a lot to be desired, especially for corp employees
