Union-busting at Kraft's 'delicious world'

Kraft Foods, the world's second-largest food company, appears to be improvising their planned breakup into two separate corporate entities. But faced with the prospect of a union at their factory in Allentown, Pennsylvania, top corporate management lost no time to combat what they perceived as a mortal danger to the company.

Over 300 workers are employed at the factory, making Grey Poupon mustard, A-1 Steak Sauce, T-Discs for the Tassimo hot beverage-maker and natural cheese products (the factory lost the processed cheese line in 2007, with the loss of many jobs).

Among other issues, workers at the plant complain about scheduling - some employees on the Tassimo lines have worked 30 days straight without a day off. To qualify for double time pay for extra hours worked, workers must put in 7 straight days within the scheduled work week. Workers on the Tassimo lines complain about understaffing, frequent rules changes and management favoritism.

The pension plan has been closed to all employees hired after 2004, and future company contributions for qualifying employees limited. Laid off workers have no recall rights in the event of new openings, and are forced to reapply as new employees.

The IUF-affiliated BCTGM began recruiting and organizing at the plant earlier this year, and was building up momentum to sign up a majority of workers for a union representation election. BCTGM Local 492 filed for an election on May 24 and the election was set for June 28.

Unions aren't always needed if the workplace cares about the employees.  This is obviously a case where the corporation does not care about the employees and a union is needed to ensure they are taken care of not taken advantage of.  I have been in union and non union shops and there is pro and con to each case.

I call deception on the Kraft thing  feds say time and a half after 40 hours.

But that would still interfere with cooking.

That doesn't work, Del. MAYO got around it. We worked four 12 hr days on...two off...repeat. .....and it was arranged so the pay period hit on the middle, splitting the hours.....we never got the OT pay. Guys wrote to every fed and rep there was; they still got around it. Still doing it.

I will take your word for it.  Perhaps you were classified as exempt or some other trick.  But I still don't believe that those factory workers were working 30 days straight and 70 hours a week without ot.

Hard to tell with all that "Fake news". A couple guys raised so much he** about the MAYO thing, they both were later terminated for "disruptive behavior/insubordination". Could they have fought it?  Sure. But MAYO does what MAYO wants and gets away with it.

Del, ya got any silicone spray? I hear that loud squeakin' noise again......
