Hoffa Ken Hall General President General Secretary-Treasurer Convention Call letter 1920 4 Teamsters Convention 2021 A CALL TO CONVENTION he Call to the Convention has always generated excitement – and rightly so. Not only is it an opportunity to see friends and fellow delegates from around the country, it’s a chance to discuss Timportant issues facing the Union and labor in general. The Convention’s most anticipated event is the nomination of candidates for International office as part of the five-year election cycle. The constitution of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters makes the role of the Convention very clear. It states that: “The International Convention shall be the supreme governing authority of the Inter- national Union and shall have the plenary power to regulate and direct the policies, affairs, and organi- zation of the International Union.” In the early days, the union’s Conventions and elections were held every year. It was thought that, as a young Union founded in 1903, leaders and delegates needed to meet on a frequent basis to guide the union’s path and build a strong foundation. By 1908, the leadership felt the union was steady enough on its feet to meet every two years instead of annually.

Hoffa, General President Office Washington, D.C. location Website www.teamsters.org The International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT) is a labor union in the United States and Canada. Formed in 1903 by the merger of several local and regional locals of teamsters, the union now represents a diverse membership of blue-collar and professional workers in both the public and private sectors. The union had approximately 1.4 million members in 2008.[1] Formerly known as the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen and Helpers of America, the IBT is a member of the Change to Win Federation and Canadian Labour Congress.

In November 1898, the AFL organized the Team Drivers' International Union (TDIU).[2][3] In 1901, a group of Teamsters in Chicago, Illinois, broke from the TDIU and formed the Teamsters National Union.[2] The new union permitted only employees, teamster helpers, and owner-operators owning only a single team to join, unlike the TDIU (which permitted large employers to be members), and was more aggressive than the TDIU in advocating higher wages and shorter hours.[2] Claiming more than 28,000 members in 47 locals, its president, Albert Young, applied for membership in the AFL.

As 1977 opens, a new round of inquiries and legal actions involving the Teamsters appears to be under way. Committees in both the House of Representatives and the Senate have announced their intention to look into the administration of the Brother- hood. Simultaneously, actions are underway involving the Departments of Justice, Labor, and Treasury. Past Teamster President, James R. Hoffa, who disappeared in 1975, remains unaccounted for. Inside the teaming crafts, two dissident groups are actively working to reform the IBT: the insurgent "Team- sters for a Democratic Union" and the "Professional Drivers Council for Safety and Health" or PROD. Each has set forth its own program for change within the Brotherhood while PROD has been active in the legislative and regulatory field as well. Within this general context, a review of the history of the Union and of the available literature concerning it would seem to be in order. It has been seventy-four years since the International Brotherhood of Teamsters was organized.

    71528_Text_Layout 1 1/23/12 6:37 PM Page 1 Dear Teamster Member: Welcome to the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. You are part of a proud tradition in the labor movement. For over one hundred years, the Teamsters Union has been a leader in setting the standard for higher wages, better benefits and improved working conditions for workers throughout the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. The Teamsters are committed to negotiating the best collective bargain- ing agreements and providing the strongest day-to-day representation for all of our 1.4 million members. Many fights have been won by Teamsters over the years, from shorter workdays to individual grievances in the work- place to major legislation in Congress. There are over 400 local unions within the Teamsters Union. Everyone benefits when the members unite to achieve common goals. I encourage you to become an informed and active member, and work with us to bring dignity, justice and fairness to the workplace. This booklet will give you a brief overview of the Teamsters Union. The history of the union is one of unity and strength, words that we, your International Officers, intend to make a priority for the 21st Century. Workers choose the Teamsters Union because we are the best at building a better, more secure future for them and their families. We are happy to have you join our ranks as one of these members.

About 130 persons attended the meeting at Waddell Elementary School to discuss the proposed $29.8 million budget, a 7.6 percent increase from this year. The proposed budget pares about $111,258 from the Board of Education’s request. Those who spoke were split between leaving (he education budget intact, and favoring further reductions. The budget, recommended by Robert Weiss, town manager, also proposed 11 new town employees. Most speakers, calling for holding the line on government spending, suggested eliminating seven positions. No one suggested cutting the four The appointment of William E. Vincent as president of new police officers Weiss included.

  • Teamsters' Management Policies and Politics That
    TEAMSTERS' MANAGEMENT POLICIES AND POLITICS 1 Teamsters’ Management Policies and Politics That Influence the Union Today Doreen E. Johnson University Community R. Richard Sabo Management and Human Resources Over the last ten years American business has downsized, limited annual wage increases for its workers, and decreased workers’ health and welfare benefits, while the salaries of its management including their bonuses have continually increased. As a result, strikes by workers for their rights to jobs and benefits are on the rise with sympathy coming from the American public, many of whom are in the same position but without the support of a union. To compete successfully in today's global marketplace an organization needs to have the support of a motivated, productive, and well-paid workforce. To accomplish this, labor needs a strong union that can provide such a workforce by negotiating return of respect for its members by employers. The management of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, the largest private union in the United States, can do this because they did it before. Their management’s policies and politics brought about employers’ approval and respect of its members during the first half of the 20th century. This historical study shows how these policies and politics contributed to the organization that is present today and the opportunity it has to prove that unions are the cornerstones of a democratic society. Introduction In August 1997 the Teamsters led the United Parcel Services’ fifteen-day strike to a successful resolution for its members of the Los Angeles locals, affecting its worldwide operations. In 1998 the United Auto Workers waged a successful strike against General Motors Corporation to save auto workers’ jobs from going overseas and plants from being shut down.
