After nearly a month of delays at the bargaining table, United finally came ready to discuss protecting critical maintenance work from outsourcing to foreign countries. While there was some movement on key Teamsters issues, United still will not guarantee that current work will be kept in the United States -- something that United Airlines Teamsters will not accept.



“United’s latest offer isn’t close to good enough,” said Patrick Gelato, a technician from Teamsters Local 19 and a member of the negotiating committee. “We’re not interested in crumbs. We want a contract that protects our work, respects our value, and pays us what we’ve earned. We’re not backing down.”
