Despite state mediation, no end in sight for Lorain County JFS strike - YouTube
11 HR AGO
After five weeks of picketing, a workers' union and Lorain County leaders say there's no resolution in sight for a Job and Family Services strike.
About 3,000 at JBS’s Greeley, Colorado beef plant strike over pay and safety; PCC faculty stay out as classified staff settle
Roughly 3,000 workers at JBS’s beef plant in Greeley, Colorado, are in their second week of a strike seeking better pay and safety. The facility produces about 8% of the United States’ beef supply, and JBS is the world’s largest meat producer and packager, according to NPR. The walkout, the first major U.S. meatpacking strike since 1985, targets the U.S. arm of JBS and has drawn picket lines outside one of the country’s largest meatpacking plants.
In Oregon, Portland Community College’s classified employees ended a 14-day strike after ratifying a tentative agreement covering about 700 workers, while a separate walkout by roughly 1,300 faculty, instructors and academic staff continues. The faculty union has called on Governor Tina Kotek to intervene; she said she is using her office to push for resolution and noted encouragement at one tentative deal. Elsewhere, campus services workers at ISU authorized a strike and issued a 10‑day notice, Saskatchewan’s CUPE health workers eyed a strike vote, and electrical workers threatened action at a Pilbara mine in Australia.
Concurrent actions in U.S. meatpacking and higher education, alongside pending votes and notices in Canada and Australia, show labor activity across sectors and regions.
