伊利诺伊州芝加哥市近1200名芝加哥停车场卡车司机工会成员10月30日投票表决是否授权罢工：主停车协议10月31日到期
伊利诺伊州库克县芝加哥市消息，卡车司机工会第727地方分会近1200名在芝加哥地区停车场运营商工作的成员，10月30日投票表决是否授权因不公平劳工行为而罢工。
投票之际，双方围绕主停车协议的谈判仍在继续，该协议将于10月31日到期，覆盖 SP Plus/Metropolis、LAZ Parking、Interpark、ABM、Imperial/Reimagine Parking、Legacy Parking、ACE 等多家运营商的员工。工会表示，停车运营商通过芝加哥停车协会以团体方式谈判，而工会已提出或正在准备多项不公平劳工行为指控，内容包括拒绝谈判、未提供信息、单方面变更、报复与非法监视。
工会强调，投票授权罢工并不等于立即罢工，而是为谈判桌上争取公平合同增加筹码。卡车司机工会第727地方分会在芝加哥地区共代表近1万名各行各业的劳动者。主停车协议到期后，若谈判未能达成新协议，芝加哥地区停车服务可能受到影响。

Nearly 1,200 Chicago Parking Teamsters Vote October 30 on Strike Authorization as the Master Parking Agreement Expires October 31
In Chicago, Cook County, Illinois, nearly 1,200 members of Teamsters Local 727 who work for parking operators across the Chicago area voted on October 30 on whether to authorize a strike over unfair labor practices.
The vote comes as negotiations continue ahead of the October 31 expiration of the Master Parking Agreement, which covers workers at operators including SP Plus/Metropolis, LAZ Parking, Interpark, ABM, Imperial/Reimagine Parking, Legacy Parking, and ACE. The operators bargain as a group through the Chicago Parking Association. The union has filed or is preparing unfair labor practice charges alleging refusal to bargain, failure to provide information, unilateral changes, retaliation, and unlawful surveillance.
The union stresses that a strike authorization vote does not mean an immediate strike, but adds leverage for a fair contract. Local 727 represents nearly 10,000 workers across the Chicago area. If no new agreement is reached after the contract expires, parking services in the region could be affected.
