“This is our first bargaining since the pandemic,” Cook said. “A lot of things changed during the pandemic, and we were deemed essential workers. So I think everyone’s just frustrated that our pay doesn’t reflect that kind of status.”
The major grocers have come under public scrutiny as inflation surged across Canada last year, hitting more than eight per cent last June as the cost of basic necessities rose. Executives from the grocers spoke earlier this year in front of a parliamentary committee studying grocery prices, denying accusations that food price inflation was being driven by profit-mongering.
In addition to better pay, Cook said she wants to see jobs at Metro become more stable, giving workers more predictable hours so they can better prioritize their families and their lives outside of work. “They risked their health and safety every single day, to go to work for a job that in many cases was not paying them a decent wage,” she said.Article content
