SIGN IN ASK LATER BUSINESS LABOR STRIKE LOOMING FOR ANHEUSER-BUSCH TEAMSTERS UNION By Justin Velazquez Central NY PUBLISHED 7:53 PM ET Feb. 08, 2024 PUBLISHED 7:53 PM EST Feb. 08, 2024 SHARE After a year packed with labor strikes across the country, another may be coming. Anheuser-Busch employees are threatening to go on strike if a deal isn’t reached by the Feb. 29 deadline, halting the production of popular beer brands like Budweiser and Bud Light. Practice pickets are being held in front of all 12 Anheuser-Busch breweries across the country, including in Baldwinsville, located just outside of Syracuse, N.Y. The strike could affect about 5,000 employees. The conflict came to a head in December when thousands of Anheuser-Busch Teamsters authorized a strike by a 99% vote. In negotiations, teamsters are asking for wage increases, improved job security and enhanced benefits. At the beginning of the month, they called for Anheuser-Busch’s final offer, after what Teamsters described as another wasted negotiating session. “Teamsters in general, across all the breweries, did a preratification for a contract and sent that proposal to the company," said Jason Whitten, recording secretary at Teamsters Local 1149. "Definitely don’t think they took it seriously at all, so being out here today, I think they’re gonna realize that we are being serious and we’re ready to go on strike if needed.” Teamsters says they have a strike fund of more than $300 million. The union on Monday announced it will pay Anheuser-Busch employees $1,000 a week. An Anheuser-Busch company spokesperson released a statement on Thursday night. "Anheuser-Busch's iconic American brands will continue to be available to our valued customers and consumers across the country, and our top priority remains securing a contract that recognizes and rewards our hardworking employees and continues to provide the best jobs in the beer industry," it says.
