Teamsters approve authorization for a strike :
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters declared that the UPS members who cast ballots to authorise their strike have approved it. The results have no bearing on our ongoing business operations and do not indicate that a strike is about to break out. Votes and approvals are typical procedures in union contract discussions. We are making progress on important areas and are still optimistic that we will reach a settlement that benefits our workers, the Teamsters, our business, and our clients.
