Starbucks secures second union ruling
The US Federal Appeals Court narrowed the scope of the National Labor Relations Board’s lawsuit against Starbucks, dismissing most of the Board's claims related to employee threats over union organizing and surveillance signals. The court confirmed that a store manager’s comments about changes to benefits do not constitute retaliatory threats, and also rejected accusations of influencing working hours and employment due to union activity, noting that reductions in hours or hiring freezes could have other reasons such as labor shortages. This ruling comes after previous legal victories for the company, with over 700 stores voting in favor of unions. Starbucks reaffirmed its commitment to its employees' rights, while the Board did not respond to requests for comment.
