In Modern Rarity, Workers Form Union at Small Chain - By Steven Greenhouse, New York Times
The union that Footco's workers joined, the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union, said its success in combining community support with boycott threats could be copied to unionize other small apparel and shoe chains across New York.
'I don't know when was the last time that a small chain like this was organized,' said Jeffrey Eichler, the union's coordinator of retail organizing. 'We're going to try to use this model elsewhere in the city.'------------------------------------------- posted 8:54 PM :: reference link ::
