Continental ramp workers decline union invitation

Continental Airlines’ field service workers have voted not to be represented by the Transport Workers Union of America, the carrier said today.

“Once again, we are pleased that our co-workers recognized the value of our direct working relationship,” said Bill Meehan, senior vice president airport services for Houston-based Continental. “We’ll continue to work together to honor the commitments and promises we’ve made and maintain our culture of trust and success.”

Employees the TWU sought to organize included ramp, operations and cargo agents.

Unions are losing their power more and more. We are winning, folks. But now is not the time to slacken pressure for the right to work.
