Drivers at DHL Subsidiary Hit the Picket Line Over Bad Faith Bargaining, Unfair Labor Practices



(STAFFORD, Va.) – More than 200 drivers at Genesis Logistics, a subsidiary of DHL Supply Chain, are on strike after the company failed to bargain seriously and committed multiple unfair labor practices. The Teamsters Local 322 members deliver to 7-Eleven convenience stores across the Mid-Atlantic and are demanding a fair first contract that includes real wage increases, affordable health care, and safer working conditions.

“This company has a legal and moral obligation to bargain with us constructively,” said Derrick Quinn, a Genesis Logistics driver and member of Local 322. “Instead, management has dragged their feet, disrespected the collective bargaining process, and left us no choice but to strike.”

Genesis drivers voted by over 90 percent to join the Teamsters in April. Since then, management has refused to engage in serious negotiations and ramped up its anti-union tactics.

“Our members are done waiting,” said Dwayne Johnson, Teamsters International Organizer. “The company’s stall tactics and arrogance have only strengthened our resolve. We’ll stay out as long as it takes until Genesis starts treating workers with dignity and respect.”
