NEW YORK, May 15 (Xinhua) -- A workers' union said on Thursday that more than 1,200 U.S. Starbucks employees have gone on strike to protest a new dress code policy that went into effect this week.
Walk-outs have taken place at roughly 100 stores nationwide, according to Starbucks Workers United, with the company's union group arguing that the new policy is worsening an already prevalent understaffing crisis.
