The defeat could discourage activist workers who have successfully formed the first unions at big chains, but have since suffered setbacks in getting collective bargaining off the ground or organizing more unions.
PHILADELPHIA — Home Depot workers in Philadelphia rejected the first store-wide labor union at the world’s largest home improvement retailer Saturday night, a loss for a fledgling movement to organize at major U.S. companies.
The Atlanta-based company employs about 500,000 people at its 2,316 stores in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Quiles previously said discontent with compensation, working conditions, understaffing and lack of training are among the grievances that spurred the effort to organize.
