Wendy’s is the biggest holdout among the fast food giants who refuses to pay a penny more per pound of tomatoes on condition that growers treat workers with a minimum of fairness. This , payment to workers at least equal to the minimum wage, time clocks, a third party grievance procedure. By refusing to join Wendy’s saves costs of less than a penny per meal.
So a group of us collected pennies at a local Olympia festival as charity to Wendy’s so they can afford to do the right thing.
