Starbucks Corp. said it will give catastrophe pay to workers affected by the fires raging in Los Angeles.
If a store is open but a barista can’t work because they’ve been displaced from their home, “we are temporarily offering catastrophe pay for any missed shifts while we work to understand their situation,” Starbucks spokesperson Sam Jefferies said in response to an inquiry from Bloomberg News.
