CitizenVectron Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Kellogg to permanently replace striking employees as workers reject new contract WWW.REUTERS.COM Kellogg Co said on Tuesday a majority of its U.S. cereal plant workers have voted against a new five-year contract, forcing it to hire permanent replacements as employees extend a strike that started more than two months ago. Quote Dec 7 (Reuters) - Kellogg Co (K.N) said on Tuesday a majority of its U.S. cereal plant workers have voted against a new five-year contract, forcing it to hire permanent replacements as employees extend a strike that started more than two months ago. Quote Kellogg also said there was no further bargaining scheduled and it had no plans to meet with the union. Apparently Kellogg was offered a 3% raise and the union rejected it, along with the company creating a two-tiered system of employees that would have diluted the power of the union. Looks like I have another company to boycott! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 If the union and company won’t agree on a deal, I guess the company should shut down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricofoley Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I looked up a list of brands to boycott and... I think my participation in a Kellogg's boycott is going to result in me buying the exact same amount of Kellogg's products that I usually do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, unless you're only buying fresh/local, you're pretty much boned in terms of supporting evil corporations. I'd say shop at whole foods, but even by doing that you're supporting Amazon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh it's pretty overblown how expensive it is, as long as you're not dumb enough to buy stuff like cleaning supplies there it's fine.
