NYC: Picket at EZ Supply
EZ Supply (also called Sunrise Plus)
4801 Metropolitan Ave
Ridgewood, NY, 11385
This is the one-year anniversary of the mass firings in which EZ-Supply/Sunrise Plus illegally terminated 15 IWW members.
In 2006, the IWW organized workers at a EZ Supply. Workers at EZ Supply forced their employer to pay the legal wage and won an NLRB-supervised election on February 9, 2006. In November 2006, over a dozen EZ-Supply workers and 460/640 negotiating committee members faced off against their boss and hammered out a tentative contract that would have given workers two weeks of vacation, paid breaks, sick days, and 60 cent raises every six months. Just after Christmas, before the contract was formalized, EZ-Supply changed its name to Sunrise Plus and fired all the union workers – fifteen workers total.
