Management Refuses to Present Comprehensive Proposal to Union Members

June 21, 2007

The 7 Southern California locals sought a comprehensive offer by management to present to its members.  Having over 2 weeks to present an offer, management refused.  Members of the 3 grocery chains, Albertsons, Ralphs, and Vons will vote on Sunday, June 24th, on proposals it has already received from management. 

With health benefits and pension severely at risk, and a management-proposed 3 tier wage system, all 7 locals are recommending a "NO" vote on these unacceptable proposals.
