Contract negotiations with Albertsons have not been productive, and your Union has refused to sign an extension beyond the September 5th contract expiration date. Your Union negotiating committee is now calling on the entire Albertsons membership to attend and participate in a strike authorization vote as follows:

Who: Teamsters at Albertsons Distribution Center in Portland, OR
What: Strike Authorization Vote — Meeting
Date: Thursday, September 17, 2026
Times: 9:00AM, 1:00PM, 3:00PM or 5:00PM
Where: Joe Edgar Hall, 1850 NE 162nd Avenue, Portland, Oregon 97230

It is important that every member make arrangements to attend at least one of the four scheduled meetings. Each member is entitled to one secret ballot vote. All ballots will be pooled and counted at the conclusion of the 5:00PM meeting.

As this process moves forward continue to report to work as scheduled. Contract notices are posted on the Union bulletin boards in your workplace and on the Union’s websites at teamsters162.com & teamsters305.com
