More than a dozen Heine Brothers' Coffee workers gathered in front of the chain's downtown Louisville location Friday afternoon to rally in support of their plan to unionize.
As many as 221 Heine Brothers workers at the chain's 17 coffee shops were anticipated to cast ballots Thursday on whether to join the Service Employees International Union.Â
In July, the Department of Labor notified Heine Brothers that labor and wage laws changed in 2020, saying that a "store manager with hiring and firing authority could no longer receive tips."
