Talks between UPS and its U.S. workers broke down early Wednesday morning with no further negotiations scheduled, increasing the likelihood of a strike weeks before their contract expires on July 31.
The stickling point appears to be wages and pension.
“Following marathon negotiations, UPS refused to give the Teamsters a last, best, and final offer, telling the union the company had nothing more to give,” the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, which represents about 340,000 full and part-time UPS workers, said Wednesday.
