The green apron used by Starbucks employees is so iconic that it has its own Mix of coffee that bears his name.
Now, the company is simplifying its clothing code for employees so that the green apron can “shine and create a feeling of familiarity” for the client, regardless of what store they visit.
As of May 12, the company will require that its workers use simple colors, including any solid black or long -sleeved handling, neck with neck or bodily color buttons, black or denim, according to their website.
The announcement arrived more than a week later Starbucks United workersThe union that represents workers in more than 525 stores in the United States, sent a letter to the company that required no changes in the clothing code in the stores represented by union until the negotiation is completed.
“Instead of addressing the most pressing problems that baristas have been raising for years, Starbucks is prioritizing a limiting clothing code that will not improve the company’s operations,” said Jasmine Leli, a three -year -old Starbucks. “Leay is forcing the baristas to pay new clothes when we are fighting, since it is in Starbucks salaries and without a guaranteed house. They start money and the time to force the baristas to a specific cultural vision that is the third place” third place “third place” third place “third place” third place “third place” third place “third place”, third place. “Belong.”
In a statement, Starbucks said it, he maintained that more than nine negotiation sessions had approximately 20 days and three mediation sessions approximately five days with a federal mediator.
“We have reached about 30 significant agreements on hungry for issues that the workers of the United Delegates told us that they were important for them,” said the company. “Starbucks remains committed to the negotiation of good faith to reach a framework for single store contracts for our partners represented by the union.”
As part of the company’s announcement, he said he would provide a couple of brand t -shirts to his partners at no cost.
“When updating our clothing code, we can offer a more consistent coffee experience that will also bring a simpler and more clear orientation to our partners,” said the company’s statement, “what focuses on what matters in what matters ingenuity, making a grain.”
The change seems to align with the “Back To Starbucks” strategy of the company under executive president Brian Niccol, who assumed the role in August.
