Foodservice workers unhappy with union

Foodservice workers at a Vermont high school want to get out of a union, which they say, is taking away their benefits.

Aramark reportedly is hiring a general manager at a Canadian university where students were served nearly raw pork chops and moldy lemons.

A Tennessee county school board decided to hold off on potentially outsourcing foodservice until more information is gathered and analyzed.

A cafeteria manager resigned last month after being investigated by school officials over missing lunch money.

For the second time, Vermont legislators voted down legislation that would have protected employees who use a company benefit, such as a sick day, from employer retribution.

In October 2014, an Aramark employee instructed kitchen workers to serve food that had been thrown into the trash to fellow inmates. The Michigan Department of Corrections says Aramark fired the employee.

Pennsylvania cafeteria workers, who are school district employees, are asking the board not to outsource their jobs.

No hourly foodservice workers will lose their jobs when Bon Appetit Management Company takes over operations at Emory University. Employee benefits, food quality and sustainability were factors in the decision.

When the Wisconsin university replaces Sodexo with Chartwells in May, 116 employees will lose their jobs unless the new contractor hires them.
