  • Sobeys to Employees: We Prefer to Stay Union Free
    Sobeys To Employees: We Prefer To Stay Union Free By Andy Georgiades Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES TORONTO (Dow Jones)--In response to an organizing drive by the United Food and Commercial Workers, Sobeys Inc. has sent a letter to employees saying it prefers to remain "union-free." A copy of the letter, signed by Craig Gilpin, president of Sobeys Ontario, was obtained by Dow Jones. It says an "American-based union" is targeting employees of Sobeys, Price Chopper and Foodland, which are supermarket banners operated by Empire Co. (EMP.A.T). "Contrary to what the UFCW will try to make you believe, this membership campaign is not based on any particular issues or problems that employees are having with their company. Instead, this membership campaign simply provides the UFCW with another way to increase the union's revenues - at a cost to you," the letter says. A Sobeys spokesman verified the letter was sent, but didn't comment further. The letter goes on to say that the company's "preference is to remain union-free," as its non-union workers have enjoyed open and honest communication for years through its Guarantee of Fair Treatment and Ethics telephone lines. While Sobeys operations in Quebec are mostly unionized, the grocer's operations in Atlantic Canada (its home base), Ontario and western Canada are largely without union representation. The UFCW has said that Sobeys is Canada's second-largest grocer and the UFCW is "the union for retail food workers," hence the national organizing campaign recently launched to unionize the workforce. Unlike Sobeys, competitors such as Loblaw Cos.
