ITOC The Independent Teamsters Organizing Committee (ITOC) was formed in direct response to the 2024 mass layoffs of UPS Teamsters, driven by AI/automation and corporate greed, and permitted by Teamster leaders.
Our mission is to empower the working class by resisting exploitation, asserting control over the means of production, and establishing a new economic system where technology serves workers. Right now, no UPS Teamster job is safe, and millions of other jobs are on verge of being wiped out from the coming AI/automation revolution.
Focused on practical solutions, ITOC advocates for collective decision-making on workplace technology, opposes AI/automation-induced layoffs, and demands alternatives prioritizing job retention. We are organizing to keep our healthcare, paychecks and pensions by building solidarity with other logistics/shipping workers, warehouse workers, tech workers and the entire working class. We support massive strike action now because it is necessary; if we don’t strike now, by the time we do decide to strike it will be too late.
Internationally, we stand in solidarity with all workers, acknowledging the struggle against capitalist exploitation is universal.
Join us. It’s almost too late.
