StrikeRadarOPERATIONS-CRITICAL STRIKE INTELLIGENCE32BJ SEIU sets April 20 deadline in talks with Realty Advisory Board; potential walkout would affect 1.5 million residents
More than 10,000 residential building workers represented by 32BJ SEIU voted on April 15 to authorize a strike in New York City if contract talks with the Realty Advisory Board do not reach agreement by April 20. The union says that without a deal, 34,000 building service workers would walk off the job, affecting doorpersons, porters and superintendents who serve more than 1.5 million residents. This authorization gives the bargaining committee the power to call a walkout if negotiations stall.
Beyond New York, labor actions continue across multiple sectors. TotalEnergies service station attendants in France went on strike on April 17 to protest rising fuel costs and seek salary increases, according to the CGT; the company says seven stations are affected, about 4 percent of its sites. In Israel, hundreds of Zim workers remain on strike in a dispute over the company’s sale to Hapag-Lloyd, with labor negotiations set to continue over the weekend. In Canada, about 6,200 blue-collar City of Montreal employees represented by CUPE 301 are in the second day of a three-day strike scheduled to end April 18. In the United States, upward of 500 Teamsters Local 592 drivers and warehouse workers at a CVS distribution center in Virginia authorized a strike ahead of contract expiration, while teachers in the Little Lake City School District in California began the district’s first strike in 150 years over healthcare costs, class sizes, and special education support.
Across the United States, France, Israel, and Canada, unions are striking or authorizing walkouts over pay, benefits, or sale-related concerns, spanning building services, fuel retailing, shipping, warehousing, municipal operations, and schools.
