PCC Bargaining Update
/We believe that PCC should lead the grocery industry by having the best wages, safest stores and strongest benefits. As workers we are committed to making PCC the best grocery company to work at, to shop at, and to have in our communities through bargaining the best union contract possible.
We have held numerous tabling events, informational pickets, customer leaflets, button ups, and delivered majority of signatures on the “PCC workers declaration of demands” petition to the employer. Our bargaining committee and coworkers continue to push PCC to be better. We are committed to keeping the pressure on PCC and preparing for a strike if necessary! Join us at our next Contract Action Team (CAT) meetings 10/16—21 or customer leaflets in October
Over the last several months, our bargaining committee has made progress in improving our contract. We have tentative agreements that would:
Remaining items include retirement, healthcare, and safety language; although we have not come to an agreement on these items the discussion has been positive.
Despite good progress in many areas of bargaining, we remain apart from PCC on wages. Our wage proposal would make PCC workers the highest paid grocery store workers in the region, while also protecting our wage scale from being surpassed by the minimum wage. You can view PCC’s and our Unions wage proposal on the PCC contract page here. Wage proposals will be updated soon.
