UPS Labor Talks: Teamsters Demand Fair Agreement in 1 Week
TL;DR
The Teamsters union has demanded that UPS reach a tentative contract agreement within a week, warning that if the company fails to do so, the union will demand its last, best, and final contract offer. The union has stated that it will not work beyond July 31 without a new contract and is pushing for a historic new contract with immediate financial benefits for its members. Both sides have already reached agreements on non-economic issues, but the union has rejected UPS' counteroffer on economic issues, calling it inadequate.
