Rite Aid Workers Overwhelmingly Ratify New Contract
We are pleased to announce that UFCW 324 members and the rest of the CA bargaining unit of approximately 7,000 Rite Aid workers ratified a new contract!
Your UFCW 324 member negotiations team represented worker voices at the bargaining table. Throughout negotiations, workers showed solidarity, signing on to worker petitions, and thousands of signatures were collected and presented to management. It was with worker strength that Rite Aid came to the table, willing to negotiate.
The new three-year contract includes wage increases for all job classifications, health care improvements, flexibility on bereavement leave, and much more! A first of its kind, “Safety Committee” contract language has been added to address workplace concerns, comprised of Rite Aid workers.
We thank you for standing together and remaining strong. We must continue to build on this momentum!
