ATLANTA — Labor contract negotiations between Sandy Springs-based UPS and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters have stalled after an all-night bargaining session aimed at reaching a deal Wednesday.
The union had targeted July 5 to come to an agreement, to allow time to vote and approve a new labor contract before the union’s Aug. 1 strike deadline.
The Teamsters have more than 340,000 members at UPS, making it the largest private collective bargaining agreement in North America. A strike would cripple shipping across the country, affect millions of deliveries a day and damage UPS’s reputation with customers.
