- Beginning last week, approximately 47,000 employees at hundreds of Ralphs, Albertsons, Vons, and Pavilions voted, and the results were announced on Sunday.
- "Both companies have refused to agree to expand safety committees in the stores, and have yet to negotiate meaningful health and welfare benefits," according to a statement from the United Food and Commercial Workers.
- The food stores did not immediately respond to the strike permission on Sunday.
- "We are committed to working collaboratively to ensure that we reach an agreement that is fair to our employees, good for our customers, and allows Albertsons, Vons and Pavilions to remain competitive in the Southern California market," the company stated in a statement.
