The union representing 18,000 Costco workers is threatening to strike if their contract demands for fair wages and better benefits are not met by January 31. Despite Costco's reputation for paying higher wages than its competitors, the union claims that the company has not shared its recent success with its employees, leading to growing dissatisfaction among workers. With the deadline looming, the union is pushing for improved labor conditions, including higher pay and enhanced benefits, to ensure a more equitable distribution of the company's profits. The potential strike could impact Costco's operations and customer experience, making labor relations and employee satisfaction key concerns for the retail giant.
