This afternoon, Teamsters General Secretary-Treasurer Fred Zuckerman and International Vice Presidents Tom Erickson and Mark Davison met with DHL Teamsters from Local 162 at the Portland International Airport (PDX).
In December, DHL members of Local 162 refused to cross picket lines established by Local 100 members from the Cincinnati-Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG).
The solidarity shown by members of Local 162 during the 12-day strike, which saw picket lines extended across the country, played a pivotal role in securing a groundbreaking first contract for ramp and tug workers at CVG. That victory, coupled with the unwavering unity of DHL Teamsters nationwide, has led to over 1,500 sort package handlers at CVG organizing to become Teamsters.
Local 162 members work as drivers, ramp agents, and clerical staff at DHL-PDX.
