DHL workers seek unionization amid dehumanizing treatment.

Workers at DHL's super hub in Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky international airport are seeking to unionize with Teamsters Local 100, with 900 workers currently involved in the effort. However, the company has been accused of violating a neutrality agreement with the union and failing to live up to the company’s global declaration of workers and human rights by opposing the union. Workers have filed 17 unfair labor practice charges against DHL, alleging harassment, intimidation, surveillance, and retaliation from management for union activities. A former manager at the facility claimed that fellow managers referred to workers as “inmates” and themselves as “wardens” of a prison in conversations about how to stop the union organizing drive at the site.
