ABF Freight System, the nation’s seventh-largest less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier with $2.95 billion in revenue last year, has won five years of labor peace under a tentative new National Master Freight Agreement with the Teamsters union. The Teamsters National Freight Industry Negotiating Committee (TNFINC) and ABF have tentatively agreed to terms for a new national contract. It will be sent out to approximately 8,600 ABF truck drivers, dock workers and other members nationwide. The current five-year agreement expires June 30.
