Local 1189 Gordy’s Market Workers Ratify First Contract

On Dec. 5, about 90 workers at Gordy’s Market in Eau Claire, Wis., ratified their first contract. The workers are members of UFCW Local 1189.

The new three-year contract includes wage increases, expands paid time off, and preserves benefits so that rates are unchanged throughout the life of the contract.

“Gordy’s stores should be a shopping experience for those who shop locally and want to support responsible employers,” said UFCW Local 1189 President Jennifer Christensen. “Many people were concerned that they didn’t have a union store to shop at, but now Gordy’s workers have a union contract. We encourage shoppers to support this union store.”
