[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 3802132, member: 1"] [URL='https://www.freightwaves.com/news/ltl/teamsters-ready-to-walk-from-ups-freight-should-second-contract-fail'][B]Teamsters ready to walk from UPS Freight should second contract fail - Freightwaves[/B][/URL] The Teamsters union has said that proposed changes to a tentative contract from UPS Freight, UPS Inc.’s ([URL='https://www.barchart.com/stocks/quotes/UPS']NYSE:UPS[/URL]) less-than-truckload unit, fails to address the grievances raised by the rank-and-file, and that the union’s negotiating committee will call a nationwide strike sometime after Nov. 12 if workers reject the company’s offer. UPS Freight employees will vote Nov. 9-11 on the contract, less than a month after more than 60 percent of eligible voters decisively rejected the first proffer. The contract rejection triggered a 30-day extension period that expires Nov. 12. After that time, the union’s negotiating committee can—and now appears it will—call a strike if an agreement isn’t reached within the 30-day period. The memo said a strike would be a “last resort,” but that the negotiating committee would have no choice should members reject the offer. The rank-and-file are taking a second vote on the initial contract, and are not voting on a revised proposal. [/QUOTE]
