"Big Three" Grocery Stores
USA
Several years ago, CLUE-LA was honored to join the workers of Vons, Ralphs, and Albertsons as they demonstrated their right to organize during a particularly difficult round of contract negotiations. Workers' brave contributions were fruitful; they now work under industry-standard-setting contracts and often appear at demonstrations in solidarity with other grocery store workers (such as El Super employees) who are asserting their own right to collective bargaining for the first time.
