Teamsters File Unfair Labor Practice Charges Against Costco

Cameron Harrison at People’s World reports from Washington, D.C. that Costco is facing several Unfair Labor Practice (ULP) Charges brought by the Teamsters for violating Federal Labor Law and their National Master Agreement in a “calculated effort to undermine Workers’ Rights and disrupt the collective bargaining process.”  The Teamsters’ current contract with Costco ends on January 31st (2025) and covers 18,000 Workers across the U.S.  The Union suspended negotiations in August after Costco refused to support Workers’ legal right to Unionize and agree to a Card Check process, which would have made it easier for Non-Union Workers to join the Union without facing threats or interference.  “Costco can’t have it both ways.  A company can’t call itself ‘Worker-friendly’ while standing in the way of its Workers’ right to form a Union,” said Lynda Linville, a Costco Worker and Teamsters Member in San Diego.
