Kellogg restarts talks with workers as strike enters seventh week

Kellogg restarts talks with workers as strike enters seventh week

Negotiations have resumed on Monday between Kellogg Co. and the union that represents 1,400 cereal plant workers who have been on strike for more than six weeks. The workers are represented by Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union (BCTGM) and have been on strike since October 5. The talks between the union leaders Kellogg's fizzled in early November after both sides failed to reach an agreement. Further negotiations were put on hold for weeks before Monday's meeting. 

The ongoing strike involves Kellogg's plants across four states and comes amid the work stoppages in the country, hitting the private sector in the US. A record-high level of workers quitting their jobs has been linked to the new rise in employee activism. Kellogg's said in a statement on Friday, "We look forward to getting back to the table and are committed to negotiating in good faith. We remain hopeful that we can reach an agreement soon so our employees can get back to work and back to their lives." The union rejected a proposal from Kellogg's on November 4th saying that the company's "last, best and final offer does not achieve what our members are asking for; a predictable pathway to fully vested, fully benefitted employment for all employees with no concessions."
