Kansas City Southern

U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and U.S. Department of Labor Acting Secretary Julie Su today sent letters to the CEOs of three Class I freight railroads – CPKC, CN, and CSX – calling on them to guarantee paid sick leave to all of their employees.

Canadian Pacific Kansas City said it was disappointed by the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference’s decision to dispute the Canadian Minister of Labour’s direction to resume railway operations.

CN and Canadian Pacific Kansas City were to resume operations following the Canadian Minister of Labour’s announcement that he would exercise his authority under Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code.
