BRONX, N.Y., Sept. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Perrigo workers, represented by Teamsters Local 210, will rally on Tuesday, Sept. 9 alongside Congressman Ritchie Torres, New York City Councilmember Oswald Feliz, and community members to demand a fair contract. Since Tuesday, Sept. 2, hundreds of Teamsters have been on strike at the Perrigo Company’s Bronx manufacturing facilities after the employer attempted to eliminate workers’ overtime protections and stop contributing to their retirement plan.
The rally comes ahead of negotiations with the employer on Wednesday, Sept. 10 and on the heels of an announcement from Perrigo that they intend to hire replacement workers.
