'Starbucks continues its rampant firing of union leaders.'
The Guardian
on Thursday that months after they voted to unionize,"Amato and his co-workers were transferred to different stores while their own store underwent remodeling, where he said workers were heavily scrutinized by the store manager through disciplinary actions and write-ups." While Starbucks claims Amato was terminated for closing his store's lobby without permission, Starbucks Workers United says that's a ruse to disguise the deliberate firing of a union leader. Amato says he didn't make the decision to close the lobby.
"This is the week of my thirteenth anniversary at Starbucks and I was fired," Amato told a local media outlet."I was fired because I was a union leader at my store. My manager couldn't even explain to me why they were firing me. She couldn't look me in the eye."In Buffalo, the company has fired Sam Amato, who worked at his store for 13 years without incident.
Starbucks said he's being fired for closing the lobby one time when they were understaffed. He says this claim is false.
