Trucking company YRC Worldwide Inc. and officials from the Teamsters union have ended their first week of talks, so far unable to reach a deal on more employee concessions that the trucker says would help it stave off a bankruptcy filing.
The nearly 40,000 unionized employees of YRC, which runs trucks under such names as Yellow and Roadway based in Akron, already agreed to a 10 percent cut in pay earlier this year to hold up the company's battered finances. In exchange for the pay cut, workers got a 15 percent stake in the company.
But the company is asking for more cuts as shipping declines in the weak economy.
The Teamsters said negotiations will resume next week in Washington.
