Starbucks ordered to reopen 6 LA stores feds say were illegally closed
The National Labor Relations Board says the stores were closed due to union organizing, which violates federal law. At least seven of the 23 stores identified had unionized.
Court can order them to be open but they can sabotage the business and then close for poor performance.
Really need fines that dig into the executives pockets and go out to the affected employees or nothing will change.
The stores aren’t reopening yet. There is a correction at the bottom of the article.
Correction: A previous version of this story stated that federal regulators had ordered Starbucks to reopen 23 stores. This has yet to be finalized by a judge. The National Labor Relations Board will sit down with both sides to try and work out a settlement as it seeks to have the company reopen the stores.
