Nearly 40,000 wireline workers from Massachusetts to Virginia returned to work on June 1 after seven weeks on strike.
Verizon and union leaders are back at the bargaining table. But how has the strike lasted this long? Our timeline breaks it down.
More than 250 people protested outside the Hotel Albuquerque, the location of the shareholders meeting, and 15 people were arrested.
As of this week, Verizon has discontinued health insurance benefits for 108,000 striking workers and family members.
Verizon upped its wage increase offer from 6.5 percent to 7.5 percent over the term of the contract.
Across social media, striking workers responded with “pictures and videos of letters in flames, in pieces, in compost bins and toilets and, in one case, lining a box of kitty litter.”
Verizon said thousands of its customers have been cut off from critical services over the past few days as “criminals have damaged or destroyed critical network facilities.”
Nearly 40,000 Verizon wireline employees from Massachusetts to Virginia remain on strike with no contract resolution in sight.
As part of Verizon’s business continuity plans, starting immediately, trained non-union employees will cover for striking workers, and provide customers with support and assistance.
