DHL Express Workers Launch Strike Amidst Holiday Rush and Labor Disputes

Over 1,100 unionized DHL Express ramp and tug workers at the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport have gone on strike to protest unfair labor practices and demand a fair contract. The workers, represented by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, are seeking improved pay and working conditions. The strike comes after failed negotiations during the summer. DHL Express has implemented contingency plans to minimize service disruptions and claims that the majority of its workers are still operating. The Teamsters have expanded their picket lines to other DHL Express locations in the US.

DHL Express U.S. Air Hub Workers Strike Amid Holiday Rush

Over 1,100 DHL Express workers at the company's main U.S. air hub in Cincinnati went on strike to protest unfair labor practices and stalled contract talks. The strike threatens to disrupt package deliveries during the critical holiday shipping season. The workers, who load and unload DHL Express airplanes, have been negotiating their first contract with the company since July. DHL Express has enacted contingency plans to ensure service is not disrupted, including using replacement staff and shifting flights and volume to other locations. The International Brotherhood of Teamsters has intensified organizing activity following a contract deal at UPS earlier this year.
