Federal Labor Law Violations Provoke Teamster Strike at AmerisourceBergen Northwest Distribution Hub
Date:1/28/2008

ted no work stoppages in the future. "I'm very, very comfortable with the labor situation we have," Yost said. "I can foresee no work stoppages here at all. We got a long history of having no work stoppages. There is certainly nothing on the horizon that would change that..."

The Teamsters report that during recent contract negotiations, AmerisourceBergen threatened employees with the closure of the Northwest facility, erected a chain-link fence around the facility, marched temporary workers through the work site, and sent letters to workers' homes threatening to replace them in the event of a strike.

Founded in 1903, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters represents 1.4 million hardworking men and women in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico.
