SEATTLE UPS TEAMSTERS ARE TRAINED & READY FOR ACTION!

Armed with the knowledge & resources to organize & take action, UPSers came away from this weekend's training at the #Teamsters Local 174 union hall with blueprints for building powerful contract action teams at their barns. Image
Nearly 300 stewards and other members from across Joint Council 28 gathered for the five-hour training program as experts from the International discussed the bargaining process and how to coordinate member-to-member communication within their shops. ImageImageImage
At the conclusion of the training, members were fired up and eager to use what they learned to engage their co-workers.

Rank-and-file @UPS #Teamsters have been participating in Contract Action Team trainings nationwide. ImageImageImage
Together, they are building the structures at their @UPS barns to rapidly mobilize member actions for the strong contract all UPS #Teamsters deserve.

More trainings are scheduled over the next 2 weeks in TX, OR, AZ, MO & WI – with many more to come during the month of June. ImageImageImage

O’BRIEN TO UPS: YOU SUCCEED BECAUSE OF PEOPLE — DON’T FORGET THAT

After a 13-hour day — at the bargaining table & in subcommittee meetings — the @UPS #Teamsters National Negotiating Committee ended Tues. with a sharper focus on forcing UPS to make more progress on key proposals. Image
#Teamsters spent hours throughout the day pushing back on UPS's attempts to maintain the status quo or weaken worker protections in its Surepost program. Article 26 of the Nat'l Master Agreement outlines UPS’s eligibility to ship smaller packages of specific weight/size via USPS. Image
Several rounds of #Teamster proposals were exchanged to push UPS to put more boxes back on union package cars and commit to regular testing of the very technology the company uses to redirect volume. Image

#Teamsters are calling on shareholders of Chipotle $CMG to support Item Six, a proposal that calls for the adoption of a non-interference policy in worker organizing efforts to prevent union busting at the company: teamster.org/2023/05/teamst… #1u
Chipotle staff in Lansing, MI who joined #Teamsters Local 243 became the first workers to form a union at the fast casual chain last year.
"Let me put the record straight: while the company stopped short of breaking the law by firing workers — like an NLRB Administrative Law Judge found in Maine — Chipotle sent in union busters (euphemistically called ‘union avoidance consultants’) and held mandatory meetings..."

@UPS discussed technology and external relationships, particularly with the United States Postal Service. ImageImageImage
#Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien reminded management that attempted implementation of any advanced technology that may harm workers or eliminates jobs will be combatted aggressively by the union.

UPS TEAMSTERS ARE WORTH MORE
And our union’s National Negotiating Committee knows it. Committee leaders, like #Teamsters Gen. President Sean M. O’Brien & Gen. Secretary-Treasurer Fred Zuckerman, & Teamster rank-and-filers reconvened nat'l negotiations with @UPS executives today. Image
During late morning and early afternoon bargaining, as both sides discussed technology, package volumes, and new Teamster jobs, committee members remained vocal that the #Teamsters are unified in this fight.
UPSers are coordinating and sharing information, and the negotiating team stands behind its proposals to improve the way of life for the company’s workforce.

"Yes, we need to preserve and improve our strong benefits, and we want to see wages go up for all," O’Brien said.
