Thirty members of Teamsters Local 959 walked off their job and cite unfair labor practice.
FAIRBANKS, Alaska - Thirty members of Teamsters Local 959 walked off their jobs late Monday in Fairbanks, citing an unfair labor practice.According to a press release from the union, the workers are objecting to unilateral changes to working conditions AT&T made without bargaining with their union.
In Alaska, AT&T owns and operates the Alascom telecommunications infrastructure which supports the operations of the Alyeska Pipeline, security and defense systems and many communities throughout the state. President of Local 959, Eileen Witmer says the member’s contract with AT&T has expired, and that federal law requires the company bargain with the worker’s representatives before changing work conditions.
Local 959 business agent, Dave Nichols, says the workers walked off the job as a “wake-up call to demand that AT&T stop violating federal labor laws.”Copyright 2022 KTVF. All rights reserved.
