Officials with the United Food and Commercial Workers union said votes will be cast over several days, with results expected to be announced Sunday.
SAN DIEGO - Thousands of grocery workers across Southern California began voting Monday on whether to authorize their union to call a strike amid continued contract negotiations with the owners of stores including Ralphs and Vons/Pavilions/Albertsons.
Union officials announced earlier this month that contract talks had stalled. A three-year-old labor contract between the unionized grocery workers and Southern California supermarkets expired March 7, raising fears of a possible strike. "We have three very clear objectives; to put more money in our associates paychecks, keep groceries affordable for our customers and to maintain a sustainable future for our business," according to Ralphs."By working together, we win together."Ralphs issued a statement Sunday indicating additional negotiations were planned to resume March 30.
"Ralphs has always been and continues to be a workplace where our associates come for a job and stay for a career," Branton said.
