Thousands of San Jose grocery store workers should soon see a $3-an-hour boost on their paychecks, though they’ll have to wait a bit longer than many had hoped.
The San Jose City Council voted 7-3 Tuesday night to pass new legislation requiring corporate grocery stores, chain supermarkets and retail stores that sell groceries and employ at least 300 people nationwide to pay workers an additional $3 an hour on top of their regular wages. Small businesses and franchises with less than 300 employees are exempt from the ordinance.
