Republic Services IncRepublic Services workers represented by Teamsters Local 104 have unanimously voted to authorize a strike. The landfill workers, who operate the Buckeye Landfill near the company's Phoenix headquarters, joined the Teamsters earlier this year to bargain for their first contract. Shortly after the strike authorization, they filed an unfair labor practice charge against the company. The Teamsters noted that Republic Services forced hundreds of members on strike last year, costing shareholders $50 million. The union represents 1.3 million members across the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico.
