Group of four workers join APP fuel and propane drivers as Local 174 Teamsters

The Local 174 family has grown again with the addition of four new APP/World Fuel Services workers. These new Teamsters, who work in the APP warehouse, were certified as members on November 21, 2018 via a card check neutrality agreement with their employer.

They join the larger group of APP workers as members of Teamsters Local 174: nearly 100 fuel drivers who ratified a first contract with our Union in early 2018, and another group of 16 propane drivers who voted to join Local 174 on November 7 of this year.

“Between the fuel drivers, propane drivers, and now warehouse workers, it is clear to see that workers at APP – and throughout the tankhaul industry – are realizing the incredible benefit of Union membership,” said Teamsters Local 174 Secretary-Treasurer Rick Hicks. “We are pleased to welcome these warehouse workers into our family.”

Founded in 1909, Teamsters Local 174 represents 7,600 working men and women in the Seattle area. “Like” us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/TeamstersLocal174.
