Workers At Airports Across the Country Take Crucial Step For A Brighter Future WASHINGTON, Feb. 12 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- By an overwhelming margin, nearly 8,000 fleet service workers at Continental Airlines at airports across the country have voted to join the Teamsters, Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa announced Friday. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100127/IBTLOGO) "This is a great day for the Teamsters and for the fleet service workers at Continental," Hoffa said. "For far too long, Continental's fleet service workers have gone without union representation, and that is now over. We will work with the fleet service workers to help them build a strong union and we will negotiate a solid contract, just like we have done for the Teamster-represented mechanics at Continental." The National Mediation Board announced the election results Friday. The workers won despite the anti-worker, anti-union campaign waged by Houston-based Continental Airlines (NYSE:CAL). "The excitement among my co-workers is very high because we know that we will have a strong contract that will give us job security and bring fairness to our jobs," said Jose Ramirez, a worker in Houston. "It feels great to be a Teamster." "This is historic news for Continental workers in Newark and at stations across the country," said Christian Cepeda, a fleet service worker in Newark. "We have tried five times to form a union in the past, but with the help of the Teamsters we have succeeded. We intend to work hard to make our jobs better for ourselves and for our families." The fleet service workers handle baggage and cargo, and they perform other essential jobs, including directing jets to the terminal gates. The fleet service workers sought Teamster representation because they saw how the 3,600 Teamster-represented mechanics' lives have improved greatly over the past 12 years with strong contracts. The Railway Labor Act election was administered by the National Mediation Board. For the victory to occur, 50 percent plus one of all the workers in the unit needed to vote for the Teamsters. The threshold was exceeded with 4,129 votes for union representation. These numbers are truly overwhelming given traditionally 10-15 percent of eligible voters do not vote in elections that fall under the Railway Labor Act. Founded in 1903, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters represents 1.4 million hardworking men and women in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100127/IBTLOGO DATASOURCE: International Brotherhood of Teamsters CONTACT: Leigh Strope of International Brotherhood of Teamsters, +1-202-497-7766, Web Site: http://www.teamster.org/
