星巴克工人在三个州 起诉新着装规范的无酬服装费用
Starbucks workers in three states sue over unpaid clothing costs from new dress code.
在伊利诺伊州、科罗拉多州和加利福尼亚州的星巴克工人对该公司2022年的着装规范修改提出集体诉讼,声称这违反了要求雇主偿还工人与工作有关的费用的州法律。
Starbucks workers in Illinois, Colorado, and California have filed class-action lawsuits over the company's 2022 dress code change, alleging it violates state laws requiring employers to reimburse workers for job-related expenses.
尽管星巴克只提供了两件免费T恤衫, 但该政策要求固定的黑衬衫、具体的底部和鞋, 却导致雇员无偿购买新衣服。
The policy, which requires solid black shirts and specific bottoms and shoes, led employees to buy new clothing without compensation, despite Starbucks providing only two free T-shirts.
工人在工会Starbucks Workers United Nations(Starbucks Workers United)的支持下,认为这项规则强加不公平的费用,限制个人言论,要求损害赔偿,并宣布该政策不可执行。
Workers, supported by the union Starbucks Workers United, argue the rule imposes unfair costs and restricts personal expression, seeking damages and to have the policy declared unenforceable.
