CVS management made little movement to address pharmacists’ concerns about quality of life issues during another long negotiation meeting with the Teamsters Local 727 Bargaining Committee on May 10.
CVS pharmacists and Teamsters Local 727 representatives took action Tuesday, May 10, by passing out handbills outside Chicago-area pharmacies to inform the public of safety risks associated with CVS management’s mistreatment of overworked and understaffed pharmacists.
The Teamsters Local 727 Bargaining Committee and CVS management have agreed to meet again on Tuesday, May 10, to continue contract negotiations.
After seven negotiation meetings with the Teamsters Local 727 Bargaining Committee, CVS management is still refusing to listen to pharmacists’ concerns about their diminishing working conditions.
CVS management continues to demand that pharmacists work longer days while cutting their weekly hours. “Like we have been saying all along, this contract is about quality of life issues,” said John Coli Jr., President of Teamsters Local 727.
