☆ A CVS Health pharmacy in Vegas becomes first to join new national pharmacy union
  + stars: | 2024-04-26 | by ( Annika Kim Constantino | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
A CVS Omicare pharmacy in Las Vegas has become the first location to join a new national pharmacy union, a milestone as organizers try to help thousands of U.S. pharmacy workers address what they call unsafe working conditions. Nearly 30 pharmacy staff at the Las Vegas branch of CVS's Omnicare won their union election on Thursday by a landslide margin of 87% to 13%. Those workers now join The Pharmacy Guild, which will represent them in labor negotiations with CVS. The Pharmacy Guild will now work to strike a union contract with CVS to address the concerns of Omnicare workers in Las Vegas. The Pharmacy Guild is seeing momentum build in other parts of the country.

People walk by a Walgreens, owned by the Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc., in Manhattan, New York City, U.S., November 26, 2021. REUTERS/Andrew Kelly/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 16 (Reuters) - Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA.O) will close nearly all of its stores and pharmacies on Thanksgiving Day for the first time in the chain's history to give staff "time with their loved ones", the company said on Thursday. However, nearly all of its 700 24-hour locations will remain open on Thanksgiving, along with certain distribution centers and other sites including supply chain and centralized teams, Walgreens said. Many big box stores such as Walmart (WMT.N) and Target (TGT.N) are closed on Thanksgiving, but pharmacies and grocery stores typically remain open with adjusted hours. However, CVS and Walgreens had said the work action had minimal impact on their operations, with most stores remaining open.

☆ IAM Healthcare launches campaign to unionize retail pharmacy workers
  + stars: | 2023-11-08 | by ( Nicole Goodkind | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
New York CNN —Retail pharmacy workers have told CNN that their employers have left them severely overworked and understaffed. The grassroots organizers had difficulty organizing the large-scale walkout without institutional support, and failed to rally pharmacy workers on a significant level. A number of other US unions represent retail pharmacy workers. United Healthcare Workers East represents nearly 5,000 pharmacists and pharmacy techs in hospitals and retail pharmacies. The United Food and Commercial workers also represent retail pharmacy staff but do not share official membership numbers.

☆ Pharmacy walkout organizers help launch national push to unionize pharmacists, technicians
  + stars: | 2023-11-08 | by ( Annika Kim Constantino | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
The organizers of a recent retail pharmacy staff walkout are helping to launch a national push to organize those employees on Wednesday, a potential step to wide-scale unionization of thousands of pharmacists and technicians across the U.S. for the first time. Both Walgreens and CVS also said last week that the walkout of their pharmacy staff last week had a minimal impact on their pharmacy operations. IAM Healthcare and the walkout organizers will then launch unionization campaigns in certain districts or areas with high support for organizing. The Pharmacy Guild hopes to get 100,000 pharmacists and technicians to fill out the form, Jerominski said. He also predicted that 90% of pharmacists working for Walgreens and CVS will be unionized in five years.

The Walgreens organizer said they have been in talks with pharmacy staff from other retail chains about participating in the group walkout. The person sees nationwide walkouts across several retail pharmacy chains as the "next step" in the fight against current working conditions. A Walgreens spokesperson redirected CNBC to the company's earlier statement in response to the walkouts pharmacy staff held this week. Pharmacy staff participating in the nationwide effort would also hold demonstrations outside the stores that workers walk out of, according to the people who spoke to CNBC. UFCW directed CNBC to a statement released Thursday in support of the recent walkouts staged by Walgreens and CVS pharmacy staff.
