    In Wake Of Smithfield Foods COVID-19 Outbreak, Teamsters Say YRCW Freight Call Center Could Be Next Hot Spot

    After hearing about the confirmed COVID-19 case, Barrett said the employees were informed by YRCW management that the call center would be undergoing a “deep cleaning.” However, the supposed cleaning does not appear to have taken place.

    “My members are calling and sending me pictures of their unsanitary work environment. If there was any cleaning done, it wasn’t close to sufficient,” Barrett said. “When employees questioned management about the lack of safety precautions taken, they were told they were embarrassing themselves and were instructed to bring in their own personal cleaning supplies.”

    One employee representative was disciplined for vocalizing her concerns about the noticeably unsafe conditions. Teamsters Local 120 President, Tom Erickson, said the Union will not stay silent. “The handling of this situation is both disgraceful and irresponsible, especially after what happened at Smithfield,” Erickson said.

    “YRCW management is not taking the coronavirus pandemic seriously,” said Tyler Barrett, Teamsters Local 120 Business Agent who represents the call center employees. “The lack of action and concern from management has been alarming. They’ve provided little to no communication to employees, and whatever information they have communicated appears to be either false or incomplete.”
