Teamsters may authorize a nationwide UPS strike for summer, The Hill reports

Union leaders for Teamster UPS drivers may authorize a nationwide strike for this Friday, which would give union leaders the right to call for a strike if a satisfactory contract for more than 340,000 UPS employees is not reached by July 31, wrote Sarah Fortinsky for The Hill.”While authorization of a national strike does not mean the strike will necessarily happen, it sets up the possibility for significant economic disruptions this summer because the strike would be the largest in 26 years,” noted The Hill.
