Starbucks
union delegates involved in contract bargaining voted to reject the coffee
chain's latest proposal that guaranteed annual raises of at least 2%, Workers
United
said.
Out of
the 490 baristas representing the company's more than 550 unionized U.S.
stores, 81% rejected the proposal, which did not offer any changes to economic
benefits such as healthcare or any immediate pay hike.
"Starbucks'
current offer is insufficient to finalize a deal," the workers union said.
Starbucks
said in a statement that the union presented an incomplete framework for
single-store contracts to their delegates to vote on, adding that its actions
were causing a delay in reaching a mutual agreement.
The
company pays its baristas more than $19 an hour on average currently, which
with benefits comes to about $30 an hour. It had proposed to the union that
their annual raises would not fall below 2%.
The
parties had been advancing contract negotiations in recent weeks after agreeing
to bring in a mediator to help resume stalled negotiations in February.
Since
then, they have reached tentative agreements on many key contract issues, such
as health and safety measures, but the latest offer was "not good
enough," according to the memo shared by Workers United.
The
union, representing over 10,000 baristas, and the company had recently agreed
to withdraw lawsuits filed against each other.
