Unions protest at Kohl's By Joy Davia, Rochester Democrat and Chronicle
Area unions are protesting Kohl’s use of contractors who they say give workers unfair wages and benefits.
The Empire State Regional Council of Carpenters Local 85 has been picketing at Kohl’s new site on West Henrietta Road in Henrietta. Gypsum Systems is renovating for Kohl’s the building that once housed the Hechinger home center, said Charles Peaslee, a union representative. But Gypsum doesn’t give all its workers health insurance, he said.
”This makes it hard for a legitimate contractor to bid against them,” Peaslee said.------------------------------------------- posted 7:42 AM :: reference link ::
