Hundreds of Petitions Signed and Delivered

Last week, the company presented an insulting wage proposal, and today, they came back with another inadequate proposal; they added only an additional 25 cents. In response, we delivered hundreds of petitions signed by our co-workers across Southern California, a powerful show of unity that made it clear we are organized, we are watching, and we will not accept less than we deserve. We deserve more than $3.25 over three years, and it’s time we make Ralphs and Albertsons realize that.

What do we do to show Ralphs and Albertsons that we mean business?

Join us on an all Southern California UFCW pharmacist call on Sunday April 19 at 7:00 PM to hear exactly what’s happening at negotiations with Ralphs and Albertsons and discuss future actions from the best source – us – your bargaining committee. We’ll be talking about the company’s attitude at the bargaining table, what their proposals are, and what we’re fighting for. 

Look out for a call from (213) 487-7070 on Sunday at 7:00 PM — make sure you answer!

Bargaining resumes Thursday, April 23 and Friday, April 24, and we’ll send you another update after those sessions. In the meantime, let’s continue to pressure the companies. You’ll hear more on Sunday, but we’re going to start ramping up conversations with patients. 

If you have any questions about bargaining or if there is anything else we can do to support you, please do not hesitate to reach out to your Bargaining Committee Members, Union Representatives or Stewards. 

In Solidarity,
Your UFCW Pharmacist Bargaining Committee
