As we work to bargain the best possible contract at United Airlines, the Teamsters Union will host in-person informational at United Airlines Stations across the country with our Training and Grants Department. Rank-and-file aviation technicians will learn about the Railway Labor Act (RLA), including:

– How the collective bargaining process works at United Airlines
– How and why bargaining union contracts in aviation is different from other industries
– The role of the federal government in aviation labor relations
– The ratification and enforcement of union contracts in the airline industry
