The union represents more than 300,000 workers.
UPS walked away from the bargaining table at around 4:00 a.m. Wednesday, after the company presented an “unacceptable offer” during negotiations for workers’ new contract.
UPS “refused to give the Teamsters a last, best, and final offer, telling the union the company had nothing more to give,” the union said, adding it has “repeatedly made clear that UPS members will not work beyond the expiration of the current contract.” The workers’ contract will expire on July 31, and 97% of members have voted to authorize a strike if warranted.
It’s still possible a deal could be reached by then, though the Teamsters said Wednesday that no additional negotiations have yet been scheduled.“This multibillion-dollar corporation has plenty to give American workers — they just don’t want to,” Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien said in a statement Wednesday. “UPS had a choice to make, and they have clearly chosen to go down the wrong road.
