Union-Backed AT&T Southwest Mobility Workers Authorize Strike
The carrier giant said a a strike vote is a routine and not unexpected step in negotiations.
The carrier giant said a a strike vote is a routine and not unexpected step in negotiations.
The CWA said this was the largest private sector strike in the South in a decade.
The CWA filed an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board against the carrier.
The carrier staunchly defended its stance, saying some striking employees get between $121,000 to $134,000 in total compensation.
For now, workers will remain on the job without a contract in place.
Union workers are “prepared to do whatever it takes.”
So far, there hasn’t been any nationally coordinated strike activity.
A spokesman for the carrier said a “walkout is in nobody’s best interest.”
Earlier this month, the CWA’s executive board voted to approve a strike.
The decision gives CWA President Chris Shelton the go-ahead to set a strike date if negotiators cannot reach an agreement.
