flag Starbucks workers in Illinois, Colorado, and California have filed class-action lawsuits over the company's 2022 dress code change, alleging it violates state laws requiring employers to reimburse workers for job-related expenses. flag The policy, which requires solid black shirts and specific bottoms and shoes, led employees to buy new clothing without compensation, despite Starbucks providing only two free T-shirts. flag Workers, supported by the union Starbucks Workers United, argue the rule imposes unfair costs and restricts personal expression, seeking damages and to have the policy declared unenforceable.
