PHOENIX, March 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Members of Teamsters Local 104 at Republic Services' North and East yards in Phoenix, Ariz., have overwhelmingly ratified their first collective bargaining agreements. The new four-year contracts include a 19 percent wage hike, enhanced training pay, a 135 percent hourly rate for vacation, sick leave and holidays, and robust language protections for safety and seniority rights.

Key Points:

Since workers began organizing with Local 104 in March 2023, Republic Services launched a nasty union-busting campaign that resulted in the Teamsters filing myriad unfair labor practice charges.
Nationwide, the Teamsters represent more than 7,000 workers at Republic Services.
"Throughout this campaign, Republic tried its best to intimidate us, but we stayed united and secured a strong first contract," said Keith Purcell, a driver at Republic Services East Yard and a member of the negotiating committee.
"After voting to become Teamsters, the company waited a full year to offer us a fair contract," said Mark McCall, a driver at Republic Services' North Yard and a member of the negotiating committee.
