US EditionTEAMSTERS AT ALBERTSONS VOTE OVERWHELMINGLY TO AUTHORIZE STRIKE
- On May 12, 2025, more than 90 Albertsons drivers in Dallas, who are members of Teamsters Local 745, overwhelmingly approved strike authorization with support exceeding 97 percent.
- The strike authorization came after the company consistently declined to negotiate a fair contract that includes wages, pension benefits, and job protections on par with those provided at other Albertsons locations.
- Albertsons management is seeking contract language to allow use of unregulated autonomous trucks, which workers say threatens jobs, safety, and families nationwide.
- Brent Taylor stated members sent a “loud and clear message” rejecting second-rate contracts and threats from “greedy executives,” while Tom Erickson warned the company faces a “rude awakening.”
- Local 745's strike authorization enables work stoppages anytime, with picket lines potentially expanding nationally, signaling strong union readiness if fair terms remain unmet.
