Help Starbucks Partner with Lost Wages

We are concerned partners at the East Robinson Starbucks in Buffalo, NY. Last week, our coworker, Julia, suffered second degree burns on her foot from a coffee brewer at work. She is being denied time off, compensation to properly recover, and any support from management. Our store recently filed for a union vote, with Julia as one of our vital organizing committee members. Starbucks has engaged in a very public campaign to try to force union leaders to quit and we believe this treatment of Julia is part of this pattern. As Julia's partners, we are asking for public support and assistance to help Julia get the medical attention and time off she needs.
