The three-year agreement delivers a 20 percent wage increase, enhanced health care coverage, and a defined benefit pension plan. It also guarantees a 40-hour workweek, stronger seniority rights, and includes picket line protections.


Grocery store chains - or ANY retail chains - do not want to pay a fair hourly wage. They don't want to give workers any benefits, OR they cut workers' hours to less than 35 so they can't qualify for benefits. As long as workers don't organize, they can't get a fair deal.
