CVS Health Distribution Workers Authorize Industrial Action From May 1
Apr 17, 2026 1:43 AM

04:11 AM EDT, 04/17/2026 (MT Newswires) -- CVS Health ( CVS ) is facing industrial action after more than 500 drivers and warehouse workers at the company's distribution center in Fredericksburg, Va., voted to authorize a strike, according to a statement from The Teamsters.

The workers, represented by Teamsters Local 592, are demanding a "fair agreement and rejecting CVS's concessionary demands," the statement from the union said. The current contract expires on April 30.

"If CVS keeps pushing concessions and refusing to take bargaining seriously, we will be forced on the picket line May 1," Chris Donald, a 38-year warehouse worker and member of Local 592, said in the Teamsters statement.

CVS did not immediately respond to an out-of-office-hours request for comment from MT Newswires.
