Good morning everyone,on behalf of Local 439, toda Good morning everyone,on behalf of Local 439, today we’d like to take a moment to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the lasting impact he had on the civil rights movement.

On this day, we remember Dr. King’s inspiring words and courageous spirit as he helped lead the charge for equality and justice. We recognize how he forever changed the course of history through his actions and inspiring speeches, such as his famous “I Have a Dream” speech.

Dr. King worked tirelessly to end segregation, giving voice to oppressed people nationwide who sought change but didn’t have a platform from which to speak. He served as a leader of the civil rights movement and catalyzed one of the most influential social and political revolutions in recent

Finally, we recognize that his legacy reaches far beyond today. Dr. King’s courage persists in all of us, motivating us to continue the fight against racism and all forms of injustice in our society and around the world. Let us never forget his courage, his leadership, and his historic contributions.

On this day, let us all honor the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. May we continue to strive for justice and equality for all people everywhere.

Thank you for your time and attention.

On behalf of Teamsters Local 439. We’re on a mis On behalf of Teamsters Local 439. We’re on a mission: to build structure and accountability at every UPS facility we represent — for good.

At Teamsters Local 439, we understand the importance of having stable and reliable working conditions for our members. Without an effective structure in place, workplace expectations are unclear and can lead to dangerous situation. That’s why we’ve taken it upon ourselves to make sure that all UPS facilities have a system in place that guarantees the safety and success of everyone within the facility.

We’ve already begun developing plans and initiatives to accomplish this goal.

Finally, we’re also advocating for increased safety measures within the facility — additional handrails, improved lighting, and other steps to ensure the safety of all employees when they’re on the job.

By taking such meaningful steps, we hope that all UPS facilities will become a place where employees feel safe and respected. With a clear system of structure and accountability in place, everyone wins.
