Workers at pharmacy companies CVS Health (NYSE: CVS ), Walgreens (NASDAQ: WBA ) and Rite Aid (OTCMKTS: RADCQ ) have staged a strike that has them walking out on the businesses for three days to highlight working conditions
The strikes at CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid are focused on unsafe working conditions. Employees of these companies are focusing on how understaffed locations are, requiring a daunting amount of work for the company’s workers.
Investors will note that these strikes are from non-unionized workers at CVS, Walgreens and Rite Aid. The walkout this week is expected to have as many as 4,500 employees take part.
Shane Jerominski, a prior Walgreens employee and an organizer of the walkout, said the following to Reuters about the strike:
“Some of these stores are so grossly understaffed at the moment and just bogged down with not only prescriptions but the amount of immunization appointments and walk-ins that they’re expected to do.”
