“Hypocrisy at its finest”: Starbucks has requested that the National Labor Relations Board suspend all union elections within the company, while claiming to stand up for voting rights.
With over 200 unionized stores and dozens of pending union elections, Starbucks has requested that the National Labor Relations Board suspend all union elections within the company, a move that the union says is “absurd.
Starbucks Workers United condemned the letter, saying that it is yet another instance of the company attempting to quell the union campaign. “This is Starbucks yet again attempting to distract attention away from their unprecedented anti-union campaign, including firing over 75 union leaders across the country, while simultaneously trying to halt all union elections,” the union wrote in a statement.
