The store is the fifth in Chicago to unionize.
Workers at a Starbucks in West Rogers Park voted narrowly to unionize Wednesday, making their store the fifth unionized Starbucks in Chicago.
That could mean employees getting more hours, Plotts said, so baristas don’t have to work “a job-and-a-half” or having more daytime coverage at the store so they can better handle the volume of customers.Plotts, who has worked for Starbucks for more than five years, said he and some of his co-workers work more than one job to make ends meet.
As of last week, baristas had unionized 200 Starbucks stores nationwide, according to the National Labor Relations Board. In total, employees at more than 300 stores in 36 states had filed for union elections with the NLRB. Of the approximately 250 elections that had been held, 40 were union losses.
