On January 6, 2012, workers at Republic Services in Fort Mill, South Carolina voted to join Local 71 in Charlotte, North Carolina. There are 55 workers in the bargaining unit.
The victory is the second in the past two weeks at Republic in the South.
?It?s a great day in South Carolina. These drivers are to be commended for standing up for their American rights in a work-at-will state and one of the most anti-union states in the union,? said Ted Russell, Local 71 President. ?We appreciate the Solid Waste Division?s Bob Morales, Chuck Stiles and John Mahoney for their assistance, and Local 728 in Atlanta?Organizer Ben Speight and the Republic drivers at their newly organized location who helped out.?
