Kim Cordova, president of the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 7, has said staffing is one of the major issues for employees.

After months of attempted negotiations between King Soopers and its employees, the union announced that 77 Denver metro and Front Range stores, about 10,000 union employees, will go on strike

After union members approved a strike, UFCW Local 7 said a two-week walkout will “allow everyone to understand our concerns.”
