Anheuser Busch threatens contract move after talks stall
The Teamsters union has rejected Anheuser-Buschs contract offer twice and the company plans to impose its proposal by mid month with or without union consent if progress stalls. About 8,000 Teamsters at 12 breweries nationwide are without a contract since March 29, including 80 at the Lysander plant. The union has a counterproposal and says talks continue, while the company argues impasse could lead to enforcing its terms. The pay raise proposed is 11.5 percent over five years, with provisions to hire more non union workers and restrict weekend premium pay if 40 hours are not worked first.
