UFCW Locals represents grocery store workers at Albertsons, Vons, Pavilions, and Ralphs in San Diego County.
A tentative agreement was reached Monday in negotiations between the union representing Southern California grocery workers and stores including Ralphs and Vons/Pavilions/Albertsons, avoiding a potential strike.
Union officials said they were seeking a $5-per-hour wage hike, phased in over the next three years, along with bolstered safety standards and “adequate scheduling and hours.”
