Teamster's Joint Council
A Teamster's Joint Council is a regional organization that coordinates activities, negotiations, and support among local unions representing workers in the trucking, warehouse, and related industries. It acts as a bridge between local unions and the national International Brotherhood of Teamsters, helping to unify efforts, advocate for workers’ rights, and negotiate better wages, benefits, and working conditions. Joint Councils facilitate communication, training, and strategic planning across their member locals, ensuring a coordinated approach to labor issues within their geographic area.
