November 20 2014

Today, Thursday, November 20, for the second time in two days, the union withdrew its petition with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for an election the day before a vote, this time for the FedEx Freight service center in Richmond, VA.  Yesterday, the union withdrew its petition in South Newark, NJ.  This is the third petition to be withdrawn in three weeks.  These withdrawals are a clear indication that the union lacks support among FedEx Freight team members.  The union generally withdraws from an election when it believes it is going to lose. FedEx Freight remains committed to its team members and to delivering industry leading service offerings to our customers.
