Video: Retail janitors strike, speak out for better working conditions

Target executives met with several striking workers before their annual shareholder meeting in Denver to open dialogue about possible solutions to industry-wide problems. The workers are aligned with Centro de Trabajadores Unidos en la Lucha / Center of Workers United in Struggle, a Minneapolis workers center.

Striking workers were joined by over 500 allies on picket lines outside Target stores in Minneapolis. All of the striking workers have since returned to work and have faced no retaliation as a result of the strike. More than two times the number of workers participated in this strike than a previous one-day strike in February.

In this video, CTUL members talk about the issues in the strike and the conditions they face on the job.
