Next Tuesday the Teamsters and County Federation of Labor are organizing a protest outside the L.A. Times, to protest the layoffs of 63 fulltime pressmen. See info below for details.
L.A. Times Still Anti‐Union
Join our rally to support L.A times pressroom employees in
Their fight for work place justice.
After 40 years of struggle to secure a union contract, L.A. Times pressroom employees ratified
their union contract on December 8, 2008. Now, months later, L.A. Times management is
putting on a full court press to kill the new teamster local union.
• Layoffs of 63 fulltime pressmen and presswomen.
• Intimidation of union members.
• Unjust discipline of union members.
• Constant surveillance of union members.
• Denying members their Weingarten rights
• Demoting union members for union activity
• Offering less severance to union employees than other laid off employees
Help the L.A. Times pressroom brothers and sisters fight this Anti‐union Company.
(NO SIGNS PLEASE)
