Macy’s
UNFAIR LABOR PRACTICE CHARGE FILED

Our Union Bargaining Team: Azia Domingo, Curtisy Bryant, Emily Hunter, Liisa Luick, Nicole Hardin.

Last week, an attorney representing UFCW Local 3000 lodged an official complaint, known as an unfair labor practice (ULP) charge, against Macy's with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).

Our ULP charge asserts that Macy's violated the law by engaging in retaliatory actions and intimidation tactics against Liisa Luick, a dedicated member of our Union Bargaining Team, due to her active involvement in protected union activities. Liisa, who has long served as a Union steward, gained recognition in a 2022 New York Times article addressing issues within the store, participated in UFCW Local 5's negotiations during a potential Macy's strike in San Francisco, and has been a vocal member of our Bargaining Team.

Earlier this year, Liisa was unjustly suspended and did not return for weeks after calling the police for assistance, then subsequently subject to targeted surveillance by store Management. Management said Liisa violated company policy, however, after reviewing the policy, we don’t see where she violated the policy and why Macy's deemed their actions necessary—unless it was in retaliation for her Union involvement.

MACY’S BEHAVIOR HAS BEEN UNACCEPTABLE!

By voting to authorize an unfair labor practice strike, we can send a strong message to Macy's that workers are united in their resolve against Management's unlawful interference with the bargaining process.
