CVS Workers in Southern California End Strike as Contract Talks Resume

Employees demand better pay and health care amid allegations of unfair labor practices at CVS locations.

CVS workers at seven Southern California stores ended a weekend strike with plans to resume contract negotiations on Wednesday.
The strike was initiated by United Food and Commercial Workers Local 770, representing nearly 7,000 CVS employees, over alleged unfair labor practices.
Union members claim CVS engaged in illegal surveillance and retaliation against workers participating in union activities.
CVS has reached tentative agreements to raise pay and increase health insurance contributions, but workers argue these measures are insufficient.
Amid the labor dispute, CVS is also facing challenges such as store closures, a recent CEO change, and declining stock prices.
