Strike at the Port of Liverpool
Dates have been confirmed for strikes at the Port of Liverpool which will last two weeks.
Strike action will commence on Monday 19th September at 19.00 hrs and continue until Monday 3rd October at 06.00 hrs.
The strike action has been confirmed as workers refused a revised pay increase package which included a percentage increase plus lump sum.
We will look at contingency plans once we know which vessels will be affected, and whether it is possible to collect containers before the action starts which could limit the impact felt by our customers.
