Whole Foods suspended Ryan, a cook, without pay on October 23, just 4 days
after 16 workers at the Jamaica Plain store petitioned for a $1/hr raise,
in response to crushing workloads. The employees also asked for
improvements in conditions, such as constant high temperatures, which were
making some of them sick. Ryan's was the first name on the petition. On
October 30, Ryan was terminated on flimsy pretexts!
Please join Ryan's supporters today (Saturday), starting at 4 pm, at a
picket <https://www.facebook.com/events/1240070326018853/> of the JP Whole
Foods, 413 Centre Street (Jackson Square or Stonybrook T on the Orange
Line). Let's show Whole Foods we won't tolerate retaliation against workers
who take group action to improve their wages and working conditions! You
can also call Whole Foods' regional office at (617) 492-5500 to say that
Ryan should be rehired.
This protest is sponsored by the Student Labor Action Movement (SLAM).
Please forward this message as widely as possible, and feel free to reply
if you would like to join the fight to get Ryan reinstated.
