[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1095720, member: 42270"] Fairly certain this would be illegal under the CBA's no strike/no work stoppage clause. IBT/individual locals could be held liable for economic damages. Granted, an illegal strike is only illegal if you lose.. However, union safety campaigns are entirely [b]LEGAL[/b]. Work-to-rule for reasons of safety are entirely legitimate and effective; imagine if the entire bargaining unit utilized every UPS method on the book to slow down the operation to a crawl for a day. The PR would write itself: "UPS Teamsters, with the company threatening to force them to pay insurance premiums and reduce their health benefits, have taken it upon themselves to work as safely as possible in all UPS operations across the country."
