January 31, 2008
On January 31, MCLAC, a multi-employer bargaining
association for freight employers, agreed to be bound by the Teamsters
National Freight Industry Standards, which will create the 2008-2013
National Master Freight Agreement.
The union is very pleased that the National Standards
Agreement will provide the same improvements in wages, benefits and working
conditions for freight industry employees represented by MCLAC as those
experienced by other employees covered by the NMFA.
We encourage all freight members to vote to approve the
proposed National Freight Standards so that you and your family’s economic
interest can be protected.
