PROFILE |
 |
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters is the largest and arguably most (in)famous labor union in the US. With approximately 1.4 million members, the Teamsters represents 16 trade groups, including truckers, UPS workers, warehouse employees, cab drivers, airline workers, and construction crews. The union negotiates with employers for contracts that guarantee members fair wages and raises, health coverage, job security, paid time off, promotions, and other benefits. The Teamsters union has about 570 local chapters in the US and Canada. Working to shed its notorious image, Teamsters president James Hoffa has proposed ethics policies aimed at rooting out internal corruption and ties to organized crime.
