The union representing UPS workers has warned that a strike is “imminent” if the company doesn't come to the table with a significantly improved financial offer by Friday.

The Teamsters union, which represents about 340,000 UPS workers, has been negotiating with UPS for months on a new contract. But talks have stalled, according to the labor union, which called UPS' latest counteroffer on pay “insulting.”

Earlier this week, Teamsters gave the company a deadline of Friday, June 30, to bring its “last, best and final offer” to the table, putting pressure on negotiations ahead of what could be the largest single-company strike in U.S. history.
