Workers Demand Fair First Contract, End to Union Busting
ATLANTA, April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Flatbed truck drivers at Temco Logistics, a subsidiary of Home Depot, will rally in front of Home Depot headquarters on Friday, May 1 at 12 p.m., to demand Home Depot end their illegal union-busting tactics.
The drivers, who transport building and construction materials throughout Georgia, made history in February by becoming the first group of Home Depot workers to unionize by voting to join Teamsters Local 528. Since then, Home Depot has repeatedly ignored its responsibilities under the law to negotiate a contract and recognize the workers’ union.
Joined by elected officials, Teamsters will demand Home Depot to stop their relentless attacks against workers and begin bargaining a strong first agreement.
