Mom’s Organic Market workers in Baltimore ratify first contract

Employees at Mom’s Organic Market in Baltimore have ratified their first contract more than a year after unionizing, becoming the first store in the grocery retailer chain to reach a deal. The two sides agreed upon a new three-year contract that includes new paid time off policies, scheduled minimum raises and scheduling protections, according to Will Swanson, the union’s shop steward who served on the negotiating committee.
