Collective Bargaining in Richmond City

Hello and welcome. We are glad you have taken the time to learn more about becoming a Teamster. By joining our great union, you will become part of a labor family which has been located in the City of Richmond, and surrounding counties, for several decades! We welcome the opportunity to represent you. As your advocates, we will fight for better working conditions, better wages, and better benefits for all city employees.

The Teamsters believe that EVERY employee in the City of Richmond deserves to have a voice in their workplace. Furthermore, we do not want your voice to get lost…This is why we believe that the currently proposed ordinance which includes several (separate) bargaining units is the best option! Simply put, the needs of your department may not necessarily be the same as the needs of another department which is located in our city. You may ask yourself, why does that matter? Well, would you want a different department telling your department how to operate? If all city employees are grouped under one bargaining unit, it will become extremely difficult for your concerns to be heard, much less addressed.

There is only one collective bargaining option for the City of Richmond and that is multiple bargaining units. This will ensure ALL EMPLOYEES have a voice at the bargaining table.
