“Our Bargaining Team is continuing to push for what we deserve, but upper Management is giving us unfair proposals as we work tirelessly to make this Co-op a success.”

-Kate White, Deli Cook, Tacoma Store

Today, Central Co-op’s representatives delivered a package proposal on economics that didn’t include any new money until the third year of the contract, and these increases were only a meager $0.07 to $0.11 an hour. While the package did include improvements to jury duty, bereavement leave, the 401(k) plan, and PTO; it didn’t do anything to address wage inequity at the Tacoma store.

We bargain again on Wednesday, February 23 and are hoping to see improvements in the Co-op’s proposals. If they don’t show meaningful movement, then we will have plenty to discuss at our Direct Action meeting on Thursday, February 24 @ 10am.

Please join us and be ready to discuss taking action to escalate our campaign for a FAIR CONTRACT!
