12,000+ UNION PARTNERS.

STRONG AND UNITED.

Our Union Movement

Our Union Movement

We’re building a movement of Starbucks partners to win a real voice on the job and the support and protections we need to succeed. 

Our union is growing every day. We’ve won elections at nearly 700 locations. We’re making a difference in our stores – but we still need to land a fair union contract. 

We’re fired up and ready to do what it takes to win that contract, and with it, a better future at Starbucks.

What We’re Fighting For

Together, we’re demanding the pay, hours, staffing and protections baristas need to succeed—locked into a union contract. Starbucks, it’s time to finalize a fair union contract and move forward!

What we’re fighting for:

  • 3 workers on the floor—always
  • $17/hr starting wages for lowest-paid baristas
  • 4% annual raises for economic security
  • Available hours go to current baristas
  • A fair dress code
  • Non-discrimination & just cause protections
  • Health & safety protections
  • No more union busting
