IT PAYS TO BE A TEAMSTER! This morning, Local 171 members unanimously ratified the first Teamster contract at US Foods in Salem Virginia by a vote of 73-0.
In April, Warehouse Division locals on the East Coast came together and charted a coordinated strategy for bargaining… THAT PLAN IS WORKING!
With support from Teamster locals on the East Coast and across the country, Local 171 President Todd Robertson and the bargaining committee delivered a monster contract that includes:
– An “Incredible” Union Healthcare Plan
– Discipline Protections
– Seniority Rights
– Daily Minimum Pay
– Hourly Minimum Pay
– Improved Component Pay Structure
– Roughly 30% Salary Increase on Average
