More than 200 drivers at Genesis Logistics, a DHL Supply Chain subsidiary that services 7-Eleven stores across the Mid-Atlantic, have voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike in Richmond, Va. The vote comes in direct response to the company’s refusal to bargain in good faith, its illegal unilateral changes to working conditions, and the retaliatory termination of union supporters.



In April, Genesis drivers voted by over 90 percent to join the Teamsters. Since the vote, management has failed to negotiate seriously and has escalated its anti-union tactics. Workers are demanding a fair contract with real wage increases, affordable benefits, and safe working conditions. If the company refuses to deliver, workers are ready to strike.
