Dockers win agreement in Poland
3 April 2008
Negotiations following 13 days of strike action by dockers in the Polish port of Gdynia over pay and other issues have led to an agreement.
Signed late on 1 April between the management board of the Baltic Container Terminal in Gdynia and the strike committee, the agreement was reached in the wake of lengthy talks to resolve the dispute. Five hundred dockers began an indefinite strike in the port on 20 March after they rejected a pay offer from management.
Kazimierz Waldowski, Chairman of the ITF-affiliated dockers’ union Solidarność stated that the agreement was a success for all parties. He also thanked the ITF, the ETF and the Water Transport Unions’ Federation of Latvia for their support during the strike.
