    BREAKING: The union workers at Frito-Lay in Topeka have voted to accept the company’s contract offer after three weeks on strike. They will no longer be *forced* to work “suicide shifts,” but little else has improved. Frito-Lay hired scab workers & waited them out.

        Jordan Zakarin Retweeted More Perfect Union

        There is currently a Covid outbreak at the factory — up to 15 workers are said to have been sent home with the virus. Now workers will “only” have to work six days in a row for up to 12 hours at a time. Here’s a reminder of just how bad things are there:https://twitter.com/MorePerfectUS/status/1412841786339430402 …

        NEW: Frito-Lay workers in Kansas are being forced to work 12-hour days, 7 days a week, in a dangerous factory. Their stories are shocking. Now nearly 600 workers have gone on strike in Topeka to demand better pay and treatment. pic.twitter.com/0d5n9Uf2fJ

        Frito-Lay also wants to “rebid” most of the unionized positions, which is to say make workers reapply for their jobs. It’s going to force members to compete against one another.

        Jordan Zakarin Retweeted More Perfect Union

        Here’s another look at the barbaric conditions that Frito-Lay forces on its workers. And it’s not just limited to Topeka — I’ve spoken to workers in cities across the country dealing with the same thing.https://twitter.com/MorePerfectUS/status/1417232819533844480 …

        Frito-Lay factory workers are penalized or even fired for taking time off. The company makes workers earn “points” to get time off. Earning one point requires working 31 days in a row and points are docked for opting out of overtime. Workers regularly do 84-hour weeks. pic.twitter.com/xsGyR2h5sH

        This isn’t over — we will continue to cover the abuses and exploitation perpetrated by @Fritolay and parent @PepsiCo. On Sunday, @MorePerfectUS will publish our most infuriating and gut-wrenching story yet about how far Frito-Lay will go to immiserate employees. Stay tuned…

        That and narrow six day week adjustment (I go into detail here) are the only concessions.https://eoinhiggins.substack.com/p/new-topeka-frito-lay-contract-offer …
