Workers at literary nonprofit and bookstore the Center for Fiction have filed for a union election with the RWDSU. According to a social media post, they “are forming a union to ensure that our voices are heard when decisions are made that impact us, and to ensure that we are compensated adequately as employees who live in one of the most expensive cities in the world.” Employees hope that management voluntarily recognizes the union, which would represent about 25 workers, including booksellers, baristas, and non-managerial staff in the office.
