Strike on Hold in Seattle

March 16, 2022 – As a strike by 330 members of Teamsters Local 174 entered its 116th day, the Teamsters made the decision to “care for our communities” by offering to return to work at Cadman Seattle, Lehigh Cement, and Salmon Bay Sand & Gravel. This decision will allow some concrete to flow to critical projects in and around Seattle, including the West Seattle Bridge, Sound Transit, the Convention Center, and the Hwy 520 Bridge. Negotiations for a new contract will continue with each employer individually until contracts are reached. This includes the three companies whose workers have offered to return to the job.
