CVS workers in California take strike action
Workers on strike picket in front of a CVS pharmacy on October 19, 2024, in Los Angeles

WORKERS at seven CVS pharmacies in southern California have begun strike action for better pay and healthcare and in protest at what they say is bad-faith contract bargaining by the company.

The walkout, which affected four shops in Los Angeles and three in Orange County, began on Friday morning and continued into the weekend. 

On Saturday, strikers outside one of the Los Angeles stores urged customers not to cross their picket line.
