Cargill Case Ready workers union asks for secondary picketing at all Wal-Mart, Sobeys and Loblaw locations in Alberta
The numbers are in and Cargill Case Ready workers (members of the United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 401) have voted 100 per cent in favour of a strike.
The Calgary-based plant produces counter-ready meat from Cargill's beef plant at High River cutting, weighing and packaging it for retail.
Key issues in the negotiations focus around income security, overtime and a lack of guaranteed hours.
The union - UFCW Local 401 - has applied to the Provincial Government for secondary picketing at every Wal-Mart, Sobeys and Loblaws location in Alberta.
