Teamsters Union Local 174 confirms with KIRO 7 that 174 concrete truck drivers did not show up to work after a secret ballot vote on Monday, stalling several projects in the area.
Jamie Fleming with the union says it rejected the concrete companies’ offer 170-1, saying the offer still does not meet its members’ needs. The union says it has been under an expired contract with these companies for over a year now.“And the fact that these companies are not moving from a position that they know for a fact that has been told over and over and over again that this isn’t good enough. And they are not moving from that position.
KIRO 7 reached out to the companies CalPortland, Stoneway Concrete, as well as Salmon Bay Sand and Gravel for comment on the matter, but is still waiting to hear back. Fleming says the drivers are expected to return to work tomorrow and that there is no strike at this time. But if a deal isn’t made, she says the union isn’t afraid to play that card.Union members with Teamsters were
