Teamster grocery drivers have won a case with implications for commercial drivers in every industry. A judge has ordered Albertsons to pay nearly $200,000 in damages for issuing attendance policy penalty “points” to drivers who refused to drive due to illness or fatigue.

The Teamster Contract Campaign at UPS will kick off with a series of workplace action nationwide, starting as soon as August 1. The International Union has released a great toolkit of materials for members and local unions to use at rallies, parking lot meetings, and leafleting actions at UPS locations.
