We LOVE a living wage, and boy do we deserve a raise... but the devil is in the details. The ONLY way to ensure workers get a fair deal is to have a seat at the table. Read our full Statement here:

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO
EXCLUSIVE: Trader Joe’s workers in Massachusetts are organizing to form the company’s first ever union. They say Trader Joe's has repeatedly slashed pay & benefits and neglected safety issues in recent years. They're unionizing to make the company live up to its own values.

Covid cases are (and have been) surging. Yet Apple is reducing protections in retail stores, and all across the supply chain. Plus Apple is requiring remote workers to come back to the office. This is a worker health and safety issue, and it’s a part of #WhyWeOrganize #AppleToo

Lushies, it is possible to stand up and challenge Lush’s anti-union attitude. Although this may not be total victory, it’s a victory nonetheless!

When a big employer tells you that "culture matters more than salary," they're trying to trick you.

There are 🚫 limits for union busters. They seek to Divide to make us hate or feel alone. They Delay hoping we’ll go away. They seek to Distract while picking our pockets. They put each of these together in hopes we will feel demoralized and give up our voice before we can speak.

We believe teaching the truth about workers struggle against their employers is an honest way of looking at the past to better understand the present.
We believe that, by focusing on a more honest look at the past, we'll better understand the present and be equipped with ways to improve the future. It's time we teach truth. Learn more about #TeachTruth here 👇 bit.ly/3GSdyGr

Allow us to introduce ourselves: we, the workers of @REI Soho, have come together to form a union with @RWDSU. One week ago today, in our daily huddle, workers presented the following to our manager, asking for recognition of our union. #REIunion (1/17)

The raises they dangle are just carrots we’re supposed to chase. Lush employees deserve better!
It's absolutely bonkers on why a company so focused on being ethical can even talk to it's employees about a supposed raise.

Hey Lushies! In preparation the compensation review in North America we are going to be sharing the Living Wage (along with resources) for a number of cities/regions over the next week. We might not get through all of them, but we will do our best to cover as much as we can.
