After an uphill battle with Canteen Vending Teamsters Local 67 leadership along with a balanced organizing committee was able to reach an agreement that the committee felt obligated to support and present to the membership. It was the Last, best and final offer from the company and after the rejection vote that took place 2 weeks ago, another rejection vote at this point would have signified a strike. With the current wage structure and the fact that the company withdrew all their attempts at sanctions that were in the last offer the Union felt significant progress had been made over the last offer that was rejected.
The contract was voted on and ratified this morning and the folks at Canteen Vending now have a new 4 year Collective Bargaining Agreement. Props go to Frank and John along with the rest of the bargaining committee in securing these members very good paying secure jobs for another 4 years.
