Teamsters Honor Autism Awareness Month, Champion Equality for All

April shines a spotlight on Autism Awareness Month, prompting the International Brotherhood of Teamsters to honor the vital roles of members with autism in their community. As a part of their ongoing commitment to diversity, the Teamsters highlight the importance of inclusion in the workplace.

Since its inception in 1903, the Teamsters have prioritized organizing workers from diverse backgrounds, including individuals with autism. By fostering a culture of respect and inclusivity, the union emphasizes that workplaces are most effective when they embrace a spectrum of abilities and experiences.

The Teamsters remain steadfast in their advocacy efforts, working tirelessly to ensure that members and their families affected by autism receive the respect and fair treatment they rightfully deserve. Discrimination based on physical differences has no place, and the union pledges ongoing support for all its members to be treated equitably.
