United Airlines technicians have rejected a contract proposal from the carrier, the Teamsters union said Tuesday
A total of 99.5% of the technicians who took part voted against the offer, according to the union, which represents the technicians.
"United Airlines' executives think they can strong-arm 10,000 Teamsters technicians into accepting a terrible deal," Teamsters General President Sean O'Brien and Airline Division Director Chris Griswold said. "Instead, our members just sent a clear message that this company can't ignore. United's radical, un-American contract proposal is dead on arrival."
United Airlines said that it wasn't a contract vote because it has yet to offer a proposed contract to its technicians. Negotiations for a new contract are still continuing, United said.
The Teamsters are one of America's largest labor unions, representing 1.3 million workers in the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico.
