Federal board accuses port trucking firm of labor law violations

The federal government has accused a trucking company in Carson of more than 50 labor law violations, including firing drivers for union activity, retaliating against pro-labor employees and planting an anti-union operative amid its workforce.

The National Labor Relations Board lodged the complaint Wednesday against a firm that employs about 150 truck drivers who haul cargo containers to and from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.
