#LaborDay: Michelle Eisen on Unionizing Starbucks
Manage episode 437594523 series 2595753
For the Labor Day holiday, we're revisiting a critical bit of ongoing organizing happening in the United States.
One of the interesting side effects of the post-Covid economy has been a surge in the power and influence employees hold. Wages in service industry jobs have risen dramatically as employers struggle to find workers. However, there have also been increasing stories of worker exploitation, leading to a surge in new unionization efforts. To discuss all of it, we’ve invited Michelle Eisen onto the show. Michelle is a Starbucks Barista and organizing member of Starbucks Workers United.
