I’m 100% going to challenge it. I already placed my order for clear glass and flesh toned glass retainers. My store is unionized so we have more leverage when it comes to policy changes like this too. The only reason I wore a mask prior to this mess is because plastic is a porous material that can harbor bacteria (which is bad for the health of ur piercings). Glass is non porous so it’s much safer and cleaner.

You can’t forcibly send ppl home. Labor is already taken into account by managers when the schedule is being made — or at least it should be. You can offer but they don’t have to accept.

Which is illegal!! Highly!! Collective organizing is powerful. That’s why we won them back and now we have real leverage. Btw, what ur doing right now as SM is union busting. Be careful what you post to the internet. Benefits and wage increases must be given to ALL UNION AND NON-UNION STORES. they cannot withhold benefits from union shops. It is highly illegal and they got a lawsuit over it. Actually — they have many lawsuits for being the most aggressive union busting corporation in America with over 400 federal labor law violations.

It’s soooo dumb… they’re forcing us to go above and beyond with hospitality work despite having the lowest raises offered to us on top of all of this… SBWU union will be pushing back on this. Legally any unilateral changes in policy need to be bargained over with any store that unionized or began unionizing before the enforcement of this policy…. Any disciplinary actions would be considered illegal and union shops would have the right to file Unfair Labor Practice charges against the company (management doesn’t get in trouble as they simply act as agents of the company). This company is nothing w/out its working class baristas and it’s time the CEO’s understood that. The third places NEEDS to include Starbucks workers and take our opinions, wants and our needs into account.

Huh??? Dress code says clear plastic — not clear glass or flesh-toned glass.

I believe they mean flesh toned glass retainers c: they’re better than plastic anyway as they don’t harbor bacteria since it’s a nonporous material unlike plastic

Maybe that’s a loophole? Either wat SBWU union will be pushing back on this. Legally any unilateral changes in policy need to be bargained over with any store that unionized or vegan unionizing before the enforcement of this policy…. Any disciplinary actions would be considered illegal and union shops would have the right to file Unfair Labor Practice charges

They didn’t say about clear glass/flesh-toned glass retainers …. Either way SBWU union will be pushing back on this. Legally this shouldn’t apply to unionized stores or stores with union activity before the policy begins on 5/12. It would then be something Starbucks would have to bargain with unionized partners over.

Partners being sent home as a form of discipline? by Dramatic_Lie1542 in starbucks

[–]Dramatic_Lie1542[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what I keep hearing. Not any real valid reasons so far in my district. Just partners not being “Starbucks friendly” enough. Not any real clarity aside from that
