273 Teamsters 結束了爲期三個月的罷工，達成了強有力的集體談判協議
DETROIT, Dec. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Members of Teamsters Local 283 at Marathon Petroleum's Detroit refinery have ratified a new contract, ending a 101-day strike. In September, Marathon Teamsters were forced to the picket line after their employer refused to negotiate in good faith.
底特律，2024年12月16日 /PRNewswire/ — 馬拉松石油公司底特律煉油廠的Teamsters Local 283的成員批准了一份新合同，結束了爲期101天的罷工。9月，由於僱主拒絕本着誠意進行談判，Marathon Teamsters被迫上糾察線。
"Despite raking in billions in profits each year, Marathon Petroleum fought Teamsters for more than a year on a contract that rewards those who make them profitable," said Steve Hicks, President of Local 283. "This strike forced Marathon to recognize and reward the Teamsters who make the Detroit refinery run safely and efficiently. We are grateful to have been able to secure a strong agreement for our members ahead of the holiday season and end this lengthy strike."
Local 283總裁史蒂夫·希克斯表示：「儘管每年賺取數十億美元的利潤，但馬拉松石油公司與Teamsters作戰了一年多，合同獎勵那些使他們盈利的人。」「這次罷工迫使馬拉松表彰和獎勵使底特律煉油廠安全高效運行的Teamsters。我們很高興能夠在假日季之前與我們的成員達成強有力的協議，並結束這場漫長的罷工。」
The new agreement includes a 24.5 percent wage increase over the life of the contract, health care coverage paid for solely by the employer, union security, and access to the Teamsters Central States Pension Fund.
新協議包括在合同有效期內增加24.5％的工資、僅由僱主支付的醫療保險、工會保障以及獲得Teamsters中央州養老基金的機會。
"After 101 days of showing the biggest oil refiner in America what it means to be Teamsters strong, we've secured a contract," said Jeff Tricoff, a relief operator at Marathon Petroleum's Detroit refinery and Local 283 shop steward. "This strike proved that support, unity, and Detroit grit can overcome seemingly insurmountable odds and level the playing field for the working class. We walked out of the plant as groups from operations, maintenance, and laboratory — and now we walk back in as one. 'One union, one contract' was our motto during this fight, and we prevailed."
馬拉松石油公司底特律煉油廠的救濟操作員、當地283車間管家傑夫·特里科夫說：「在向美國最大的煉油商展示了強勢的Teamsters意味着什麼之後，我們已經簽訂了一份合同。」「這次罷工證明，支持、團結和底特律的勇氣可以克服看似無法克服的困難，爲工人階級創造公平的競爭環境。我們成群結隊地從運營、維護和實驗室走出了工廠，現在我們合而爲一地回到了工廠。在這場鬥爭中，'一個工會，一份合同'是我們的座右銘，我們取得了勝利。」
"Throughout this fight, Marathon workers embodied what it truly means to be Teamsters," said Rocco Calo, Director of the Teamsters Industrial Trades Division. "These men and women stood shoulder to shoulder, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, through inclement weather and demanded their employer negotiate an industry-leading contract. Thank you to the negotiating committee, Local 283, and International Vice President for the Central Region Tom Erickson for helping to secure a strong agreement for our Marathon brothers and sisters."
Teamsters工業貿易部董事羅科·卡洛說：「在這場戰鬥中，馬拉松工作人員體現了成爲Teamsters的真正意義。」「在惡劣的天氣中，這些男人和女人每週七天，每天24小時並肩站在一起，並要求他們的僱主談判一份行業領先的合同。感謝談判委員會、Local 283和中部地區國際副總裁湯姆·埃裏克森幫助我們的馬拉松兄弟姐妹達成一項強有力的協議。」
