union

The book retail empire's Union Square branch is the latest of its stores to unionize.

“They’re losing staff by the day,” said one city worker.

Aides and analysts will gather outside City Hall to demand better pay.

Workers say they have not been sufficiently trained for combative customers and are not properly compensated for their hours.

If employees vote to form a union, it would be New York City’s first unionized Trader Joe’s.

The switch will provide some new benefits, but critics of the change have raised concerns that the Medicare Advantage plan will be more likely to require prior approval for certain medical services and potentially deny coverage.

Workers at seven New York City Starbucks locations walked off the job Thursday, joining employees at more than 100 stores across the country.

More than 65% of the doctors-in-training at Montefiore have pledged their support for the union, giving them a strong majority, organizers said.

If a majority of workers vote in favor, it would be the third unionized Trader Joe’s nationwide.

An overwhelming 95% of unionized adjunct faculty members voted in favor of the strike.
