On Sunday, November 23rd, Teamsters at Morgan Foods in Austin, Indiana overwhelmingly ratified a new six-year agreement.  This new Contract will dramatically improve the lives of Morgan Foods workers and their families.  Among other improvements, the new contract includes very substantial pay raises, changes in seniority regarding bid rights, jury duty, and a new attendance policy for all employees.  

The vote, which was held at the Austin High School Gymnasium, was attended by nearly 75% of the union workforce.  President Zuckerman, the Executive Board and Agent Rick Curtis would like to thank all of the members who took the time to attend the meeting and to cast their ballots on a Sunday afternoon. 

The Negotiating Committee deserves special recognition for delivering this contract victory.  Through your knowledge and skill you were crucial in helping deliver the agreement that your fellow Teamsters deserve for their hard-work and dedication! 

Thank you:
