Costco Faces Strike Threat Amid Teamsters' Labor Dispute
Costco has rejected nearly all proposals from the Teamsters union, including key protections for workers, as the contract deadline approaches. The Teamsters accuse Costco of not bargaining in good faith and taking an anti-union stance, with unfair labor practice charges filed against the company. The union demands a contract that reflects Costco's significant profits and improves working conditions for its employees. If an agreement is not reached by January 31, 2025, over 18,000 workers may strike.
