News Flash: This has been going on for a long time. I remember while working at the Palo Alto Whole Foods (2008-last year), that almost no one in my department worked 40 hours, except the supervisors. Of course the article is a bit biased to begin with-its like reading an indictment of unions from a manager who doesn't want the wealth to trickle down to the peons.
- stephengillie 13y agoI'm just going to throw this out there: the UFCW has had Kroger, Safeway, Supervalu, and the other major players paying for fully subsidized insurance. Every employee working more than 80 hours a MONTH has had medical insurance for their families for more than 20 years. And Safeway's president reworked the plan 10 years ago to require preventative care like annual physicals, arguing that the ounce of prevention was cheaper than the pound of cure.
