The International Brotherhood of Teamsters this week joined three YRC Worldwide Inc. subsidiaries in seeking to dismiss a lawsuit filed by ABF Freight System challenging wage and benefit concessions approved by union members who work for the three YRCW entities. In a court filing Tuesday, Nov. 23, the Teamsters agreed with most of the points made by the YRCW subsidiaries in their own filings against ABF’s lawsuit.
The YRCW subsidiaries on Nov. 16 announced they had filed a motion to dismiss ABF’s complaint that alleges a violation of the National Master Freight Agreement between the subsidiaries and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. YRC Inc., New Penn Motor Express Inc. and USF Holland Inc. asked the U.S. District court for the Western District of Arkansas to dismiss ABF’s complaint because ABF is not a party to the NMFA and has no standing to challenge its amendments.
In seeking their own dismissal of ABF’s lawsuit, the Teamsters also note that ABF tried to earn similar concessions in May but that its union workers voted down those changes. The Teamsters also argue that ABF took itself out of negotiating the NMFA in 2008 and that it has no right to invoke the contract.
ABF Freight System’s complaint argues that concession agreements between the Teamsters union and the YRC Worldwide entities violate the NMFA, the collective bargaining agreement covering most unionized trucking, including drivers and dockworkers nationwide. ABF argues that the union violated the NMFA in 2009 and 2010 by entering into concessionary side agreements with the YRC Worldwide companies to the exclusion of ABF and other companies signatory to the NMFA; these agreements led to ongoing significant wage and benefit reductions and other economic concessions that were applied only to the YRC Worldwide companies.
ABF, with more than 8,000 union employees, argues the third and latest amendment to the NMFA – negotiated between the YRC Worldwide entities and the Teamsters in late September and ratified by union members Oct. 30 as part of a restructuring plan aimed at saving both the company and more than 25,000 union jobs – will “provide further wage, benefit and work rule changes that are expected to generate an average of $350 million in annual savings through the end of the extended agreement.” ABF also seeks financial damages in an amount estimated to be about $750 million by the time the NMFA is set to expire on March 31, 2013.
In a separate matter, the Teamsters National Freight Industry Negotiating Committee said Nov. 17 that it had been advised by YRC Inc. that the company would be making a multiregion “change of operations” that would affect several hundred union members throughout the United States and potentially close 31 small- and medium-sized terminals in three of the four Teamster regional areas in which it operates. “At this time, no hearing has been scheduled and will likely not be scheduled prior to the holidays as YRC needs to meet with each affected local union as a first step in the process,” said Tyson Johnson, TNFINC co-chair.

Meinte ich, mich auf sinnlose und Dumme DISKUSSIONEN einzulassen..
ABER... Das soll ja nicht bedeuten das ich mich von ein paar Pap....en unterdrücken lasse...
da werden einige "auf Granit beissen".
Wünsche allen ein schönen 1. Advent 
Es interessiert niemanden, was Du zu berichten weisst. Lass Prinz in Ruhe und berichte über YRC.
Overland Park, Kansas-based YRC Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ: YRCW) provides a variety of transportation services through its subsidiaries.
Last week, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters said that it will join YRC Worldwide in calling for a federal judge in Arkansas to dismiss a lawsuit challenging three rounds of wage and benefit concessions authorized by union members who work for the company.
Even as YRC Worldwide continues to work toward improving its financial position, the prospects for the trucking industry are looking good. The American Trucking Associations reported last week that truck tonnage grew in October to the highest level in three months. In a report released last week, the trade group said that its advance index of for-hire truck tonnage gained 0.8% in October, following a revised 1.8% gain in September.
Also this month, YRC Worldwide announced that it plans to shut down around 40 terminals across the country. The move is expected to improve the trucking company’s operating efficiency. The combination of better prospects for the trucking industry and the improvement in operations at YRC Worldwide are likely to help the company in consolidating its position.
YRC Worldwide recently announced its third-quarter financial results. The company managed to narrow down its third-quarter losses on the back of lower costs and continued uptick in freight. The company reported a third-quarter loss of $71.7 million, or $1.33 per share, compared with a loss of $158.7 million, or $66.66 per share reported in the third quarter of 2009. Analysts were expecting the company to report a loss of $1.31 per share in the third quarter of 2010. The company’s third-quarter revenue dropped 6% to $1.14 billion, in-line with analysts’ expectations.
YRC Worldwide stock is down 27.66% in November. Year-to-date, the stock is down 84.81%. It has a 52-week range of $2.53-$32.50. The stock is currently trading below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages. It has a support level at $3.11 and a resistance level at $3.47.
