Please Don't Eat at Wendy's or Arby's



Wendy's is being unfair to the employees who bake the buns for its restuarants by refusing to negoiate a fair contract with these workers. The compnay eliminated negoiated health care and defined pension benefit plans, and imposed substandard health insurance and risky 401(k) plans as replacements.

We are asking the public to refrain from patronizing Wendy's and Arby's until this dispute is resolved in a fair manner.

The Bakery Workers Local 57 had a very positive relationship with Wendy's prior to its recent takeover by Arby's. Unfortunately, the new owners are motivated by greed and do not believe in fair treatment of the workers who bake the buns.

Thank you for your support on behalf of the working men and women at Wendy's/Arby's bakeries.

*We are not asking any employee to cease working at, or any supplier to cease providing goods or services to this location.
