Franz Bakery workers strike against unsafe working conditions On Nov. 7, approximately 40 employees picketed in front of Franz’s Eugene-Springfield location as their strike concluded its seventh day. Approximately 180 workers are taking part in the strike. Steve Dade is the Union Executive Board Vice President and has worked at Franz for 28 years. Dade said ...

🚨 ANOTHER STRIKE ALERT 🚨 Nearly 200 members of BCTGM Local 114 (Portland, Ore.), who make Franz bread products for United States Baking Company, have initiated a ULP strike against the company.

The workers are striking over scheduling issues, work-life balance, and low pay relative to the industry.

“Our Franz members want a more just and fair scheduling system. We have proposed following Oregon’s new ‘Predictive Scheduling Law’ that would give our members more notice on their schedule, restrict forced overtime and give our members more flexibility,” reports Chief Negotiator/BCTGM International Vice President Shad Clark. “Unfortunately, the company is unwilling to consider changes to the scheduling system as it currently stands.”

Clark also stated that over the past two contract cycles, the workers’ wages had fallen behind the industry average. Over that period the company has grown substantially and increased their profitability, and the members want to be rewarded for that success.

Local 114 has filed unfair labor practice charges with the federal government against Franz Baking for unilateral changes to the collective bargaining agreement, changing the way vacations are distributed and failing to respond to the Union’s request for information.
