Starbucks baristas want a say in its new code of conduct and controversial rollback of its 'open-door' policy
Briefly

The Starbucks Workers United union is demanding more clarity and bargaining from the company regarding the enforcement of its new code of conduct, especially after a contentious reversal of its open-door policy.
The new code of conduct, which limits access to Starbucks facilities, challenges the company’s previous identity as a 'third place' for community interaction, raising concerns among baristas.
Following successful strikes in 2022 and 2023, the union emphasizes its readiness to establish a robust enforcement framework contingent upon Starbucks' commitment to support baristas adequately.
Starbucks has clashed with its union, dismissing wage demands as 'not sustainable' while the union counters that the company's pay proposals are inadequate and unrealistic.
