TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - The union at Frito Lay will officially be going on strike after voting in tonight’s session.

Members of the local Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers, and Grain Millers union (BCTGM) held several sessions at the Capitol Plaza Hotel Saturday to vote on if they should strike.

The final vote came down to 353 to 30.

Union members are in conflict with the company and are fighting for improved working conditions, benefits and wages.

Mediation failed back in March.

“It’s gotten to this point because the membership has endured three contracts now with substandard wage increases the company has really held out on wage increases all the employees deserve better and they’re fighting for it,” said Mark Benaka the Business Manager for the union.

The union plans to begin the strike at 12:01 on July 5th.
