Starbucks Corp. Chief Executive Howard Schultz outlined expanded wages and benefits the coffee giant aims to extend to baristas, but he said the chain’s growing number of unionized cafes would need to negotiate their own deals.
The Seattle-based coffee giant said Tuesday that it would invest roughly $200 million in stores and employees, including higher hourly pay, fixing cafe equipment, increased training, perks for highly skilled baristas and an app for better workplace communication.
Starbucks is expanding pay and benefits as a battle between the company and newly unionized employees escalates. The Starbucks Workers United union, formed in late 2021 following votes in Buffalo, N.Y., cafes, has been pushing for better benefits, more training and a bigger voice in company affairs.
Mr. Schultz, Starbucks’s longtime leader who returned in April for a third stint as CEO, has ratcheted up the company’s efforts to persuade baristas that Starbucks, not a labor union, can best look out for employees’ interests.
A “union contract will not come even close to what Starbucks offers,” Mr. Schultz said Tuesday during an investor call.
Starbucks Workers United said that its campaign pressured Mr. Schultz and the company to improve pay and benefits for employees, steps that the union said it has proposed in bargaining sessions for union-represented cafe workers.
