Breaking News: Costco Workers Threaten Strike

📅 Deadline Approaches – Workers have until midnight to reach a new deal, or they plan to walk off the job.

Key Demands from Workers

🛠️ Higher Wages
💼 Better Benefits
🏢 Improved Workplace Policies

The union, representing 18,000 Costco workers, claims the company has engaged in unfair labor practices, including preventing employees from wearing union buttons and restricting union representatives from stores.

Potential Impact

📦 Supply Chain Disruptions – A strike could impact Costco’s stock availability at certain warehouse locations.
💰 Price Increases – If prolonged, the strike could lead to higher prices for consumers.

Last week, union members rallied outside Costco’s headquarters, emphasizing their contribution to the company’s $7.4 billion annual profit.

“We are just asking for fair wages, better medical benefits, and improved working conditions.”

📊 Costco’s Response

📝 The company states negotiations are in good faith and the strike would impact less than 10% of U.S. locations.
📞 Costco’s CEO affirms they are committed to a fair and timely resolution.
