Workers at XPO in N.J. Ratify Contract; 2nd Contract Approved Nationwide
Updated On: Jul 19, 2021
July 19, 2021 | COLLECTIVE BARGAINING | (Click photo to enlarge.) Drivers at XPO Logistics in Trenton, New Jersey made history of their own on Saturday, July 17 by ratifying their first contract, one week after their co-workers in Miami did the same, and the two groups now have their rights and protections in a legally binding contract for the first time. “For the second time in one week, XPO workers ratified their first contract at XPO despite XPO management saying workers would never ratify a contract,” said Jim Hoffa, Teamsters General President. “These two groups’ positive contract votes give other XPO workers the hope that they too can fight and win a more secure future as Teamsters.” The group of 34 drivers at XPO in Trenton voted to join Local 701 in April 2017.
