For a little under two weeks in January, King Soopers employees went on strike, citing lack of proper wages, outsourcing of jobs and lack of protection in the workplace. This strike was supported by the United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 7, a union that assisted these employees in coming to an agreement with the store.
