Starbucks Workers Upset With New Dress Code Begin Strike | Entrepreneur
Briefly

Starbucks has recently updated its dress code for U.S. stores, permitting only black shirts alongside specific-colored bottoms. This change triggered protests from Starbucks Workers United, which represents over 10,000 employees, with numerous workers walking off the job. The union argues that this new policy materially contradicts a previously negotiated agreement and places additional financial strain on baristas. Starbucks maintains operations are unaffected by the protests, declaring the dress code change as simple and manageable, while negotiations for a new contract continue after a recent rejection of their offer.
Starbucks Workers United claims that the recent dress code change significantly deviates from a tentative agreement, imposing financial burdens on baristas already struggling to make ends meet.
Starbucks asserts that the new dress code is straightforward, requiring baristas to wear a black shirt and certain designated bottoms, while indicating that operations remain unaffected by employee protests.
