FOX31's Kasia Kerridge details the Safeway and Albertson's union strike as more stores across Colorado join in.

Safeway employees at a Denver store walked out Monday, expanding a strike that started this weekend. The strike started small with workers at three stores in Estes Park, Fountain and Pueblo, and a Denver distribution center.

Currently, unfair labor practice strikes are limited to Safeway/Albertsons locations in just four cities: stores in Estes Park, Fountain and Pueblo, and a distribution center in Denver.

With the clock winding down toward Saturday night's deadline for new contract negotiations, a Colorado union has announced locations where grocery employees are set to walk off the job on Sunday in protest.

Pueblo and Pueblo West Safeway workers have joined a United Food and Commercial Workers Local 7 strike seeking better pay, staffing and benefits.
