A MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT ED THOMPSON
If you haven’t already done so please take a moment to register as a Local 776 member or retiree.
On January 10-11, 2018, lead negotiators for the UPS Freight contract, Kris Taylor and Shawn Dougherty, met with members at the Harrisburg and York terminals. The purpose of meeting with the members was to discuss contract proposals and answer questions pertaining to the contract negotiating process. Joined by Local 776 President Edgar Thompson and UPS Freight Business Agent Spencer Dearth, the group logged several miles walking the dock and meeting with the members through the course of the two-day tour of the facilities. Preparations for negotiations by the IBT have been occurring for months for the UPS Package and UPS Freight contract and are scheduled to begin on January 22, 2018. The two UPS contracts expire in July 2018, with the UPS Package contract the largest collective bargaining agreement in the country.
