AMERICAN LABOUR:
SOLIDARITY WITH THE FRED MEYERS WORKERS:
The following story and appeal is from the United Food and Commercial Workers (http://ufcm.ca ). The situation mentioned below has happened in Oregon State.

April Fool's for Grocery Workers?:‏
From:
United Food and Commercial Workers Int'l Union (nationalbargaining@ufcw.org )
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
If tomorrow’s headline reads:
“FRED MEYER TREATS ALL WORKERS AT THE DALLES LOCATION FAIRLY AND EQUALLY”
...check the date. Is it April 1st?
Unfortunately, for the non-food employees at Fred Meyer, that headline would be an especially cruel April Fool’s Day joke. Fred Meyer continues to treat the non-food workers at The Dalles location differently than the rest of the union workers in the store.

And that's just not fair--any day of the year.

Please tell Fred Meyer to treat their non-food workers at the Dalles Fred Meyer with respect and dignity, just like the rest of their employees:
Email
Fred Meyer at carl.wojciechowski@fredmeyer.com
or Call at 503-797-7781
