What’s at Risk?
When union members are put on the picket line by the UFCW, they find out firsthand just what they’re risking during an economic strike.
Paychecks from the organization may stop.
Economic strikers may not qualify for unemployment.
Strikers may have to pay the entire premium for any medical insurance policies.
And in some cases, permanent replacements are hired to take the place of striking workers. While the striker does go on a preferential recall list, the replacement is under no obligation to give up the job when the strike is over.
