|
|
Teamster members from Local 215 in Evansville, Indiana have been in a fight with Republic / Allied Waste over the company refusing to bargain on there Central States Pension. This has been a typical fight for Teamster members across the country. More and more employers have been attacking workers pensions for some time now and this practice has to stop! In March of 2012 Republic locked out 80 Teamsters in Evansville ,Ind.
“Our members provide a public health service to the city of Evansville, and they deserve to be able to retire with dignity said Chuck Whobrey President of Teamsters Local 215. We must continue to battle these companys that have the resources to fund the plans , it's not that they don't have the ability to pay, they just want more profit in thier pockets . Teamster Local 618 members stand with there brothers and sisters at Republic / Allied Waste.
