FedEx Freight, the industry leader in less-than-truckload
transportation, and a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX),
announced that city and road drivers in Croydon, Pa., voted to
decertify the Teamsters union as their bargaining representative.
These election results come less than two weeks after drivers at
the FedEx Freight location in Charlotte, N.C., also voted the
Teamsters union out.
“FedEx is a great place to work and we are recognized around the
world for our strong culture,” said Michael Gee, service center
manager in Croydon. “Our drivers recognize that we are a stronger,
more cohesive company without a union.”
Bill Agnew, service center manager in Charlotte, added, “We are
proud of all the people who work at FedEx Freight and their
commitment to providing outstanding service to our customers. The
decertification vote in Charlotte was a vote of confidence in the
company and we look forward to working directly with our drivers as
we focus on a bright future at FedEx Freight.”
