Negotiations will resume next week between UPS and the Teamsters union, which represents 340,000 UPS workers, ahead of a looming nationwide strike

Negotiations will resume next week between UPS\n \n and the Teamsters union, which represents 340,000 UPS\n \n workers, ahead of a looming nationwide strike. This will be the first time the two sides have met since they walked away from the negotiating table following a marathon negotiating session over the July 4 weekend.

They also agreed to do away with a two-tiered wage system for those who work during the week, as opposed to those who work on weekends. UPS also said it presented the union with a “historic” economic package, but the union said that offer was not good enough, especially concerning part-time worker pay. Part-time workers, which represent 55% of the 340,000 Teamsters, are not drivers but work exclusively as package handlers and sorters in the warehouses.
