07 January 2016 Today - Thursday, 7 January - at 15:15 the port workers at the container terminals started a 24-hour strike. The trade unions FNV and CNV had called for this strike because the ultimatum the trade unions had given the employers in the container sector and the Port of Rotterdam Authority expired. No agreement could be reached between all parties about the full set of demands of the trade unions regarding measures to address the possible redundancy of employees in the coming years. The Port of Rotterdam is working hard behind the scenes to take up the discussions between trade unions, employers and the Port Authority again as quickly as possible. Port of Rotterdam Authority press release |
