Frito-Lay Workers Celebrate Successful Strike: We Definitely Have Leverage Right Now

Frito-Lay Workers Celebrate Successful Strike: We Definitely Have Leverage Right Now On 7/24/21 at 7:30 PM EDT Workers at a Frito-Lay plant in Topeka, Kansas, agreed on Friday to end a strike that had dragged on for nearly three weeks over issues that had persisted for years, voting to ratify a contract that will increase their pay and give them additional time off. With companies struggling to fill empty positions in the wake of the pandemic, and job postings at their highest levels since 2000, the workers were going into the negotiations from a strong position. The more than 800 workers began striking earlier this month to protest working conditions and long hours. Representing them was the International President of the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union, which said that employees were being forced to work seven days a week, up to 12 hours per shift, and have been required to work double and triple shifts.
