This afternoon Teamsters Local 89 reached a Tentative Agreement with UPS for the Louisville Air Rider, which covers all Local 89 members at Worldport.

This new agreement is a tremendous step forward and contains strong language for more Full-Time jobs, improvements to the shuttle system, safety language, additional time off for high senior employees, and much more.

“We believe this is the strongest Air Rider we’ve ever negotiated,” said President Avral Thompson. “Our committee did an excellent job and secured major improvements across the board, and our rank-and-file members drove this home by being active and engaged.”

We will be releasing more specific details in the coming days, so please stay tuned!
