After more than 6 months, members of UFCW Local 700 in Indiana have reached a victory in the fight against Kroger’s use of non-union subcontractors. Members organized to enforce the contract, file grievances, and educate their coworkers. Then, in August, Kroger announced it would be ending the Retail Odyssey DSD program entirely.

Read the interview with Andrea Reynolds and Kristen Jackson, two shop stewards in Kokomo and Zionsville, about how they did it.

Each year, EW4D compiles a nonpartisan report on UFCW finances to bring greater transparency to our union.

So, you just became a steward...now what? Sign up for EW4D’s Stewards’ Summer School training series this August to learn skills for shop stewards and union activists.
