A Voice for Pharmacy Professionals

We stand at a critical moment in the history of the Pharmacy profession. Pharmacists and Pharmacy Technicians at corporate chain retail giants have recently staged unprecedented walkouts to protest unsafe staffing levels and dangerously high workloads. These are not new problems, but they have intensified exponentially due to rampant corporate greed and consolidation, as well as increased workload and job responsibilities during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In taking collective action, these courageous Pharmacy professionals have put their professional and ethical obligations to patients first, pointing out that dangerously low staffing and inadequate resourcing of pharmacies increase the risks of mistakes and compromise patient care. These walkout actions, organized entirely by employees, sent a powerful message to the industry and to fellow Pharmacy professionals that fundamental changes must be made to ensure patient and employee safety. Now, that courage has helped launch the next step of our movement: the only pharmacy union by and for pharmacy professionals, The Pharmacy Guild.
