Nationally, more than 315 Starbucks stores have won union election, according to the Workers United labor union.
Seeking better working conditions at their high-volume store, employees at the Encinitas Starbucks location at Leucadia Boulevard and Interstate 5 have successfully unionized.
The organization effort came after management cut back the number of staffers working during any given shift, said Denika Brown, a 26-year-old barista who works at the busy drive-thru Encinitas Starbucks store at 905 Orpheus Ave.“A lot of us haven’t had time to take a break, or even go to the bathroom,” Brown said. “Our store is the busiest store in North County. We just don’t have time.
Specifically, the group said it wants base pay of $20 per hour for baristas and $25.40 per hour for shift supervisors, with higher wages for workers in higher-cost regions. The proposal also calls for 5 percent annual raises, cost-of-living increases and seniority raises. “We’ve been clear in our belief that we can achieve more together by working side-by-side with our partners. As a result of the direct employment relationship preferred by more than 97 percent of our partners, we continue to work to reinvent and improve the Starbucks experience,” Starbucks spokesperson Andrew Trull said. “We’re aware that a subset of partners feel differently, and we respect their right to organize and to engage in lawful union activities.
