Teamsters Local 401 members at PepsiCo in Pittston, Pa., have voted overwhelmingly to ratify a record-breaking contract. The new five-year Teamsters agreement includes average wage increases of 24 percent over the life of the contract, improved pension benefits, more paid time off, and a higher overtime rate.



With this ratification, Local 401 members at Pepsi are now among the top-earning workers in the Wyoming Valley among all respective job classifications.



“This is a perfect example of what Teamsters can accomplish when we come together for the greater good and refuse to settle for anything less than what we deserve,” said Jeff Padellaro, Director of the Teamsters Brewery, Bakery, and Soft Drink Conference.
