Approximately 3,800 workers at JBS USA's Greeley, Colorado beef plant ended a three-week strike — the first at a U.S. slaughterhouse in over 40 years — and agreed to return to work on April 7, 2026, despite reaching no new contract. The walkout, driven by below-inflation wage offers, mandatory out-of-pocket safety equipment costs, and rising healthcare premiums, ended only with JBS's commitment to resume bargaining sessions on April 9-10, raising questions about whether a verbal promise of talks will produce durable gains for a largely immigrant workforce at a company with a record of legal and ethical violations.
