DHL must consult say global delivery unions
26 February 2009
Representatives of workers in the global delivery sector today passed a resolution demanding that DHL/Deutsche Post World Network (DPWN) engage in meaningful dialogue with workers’ unions.
The resolution was passed by members participating in the joint Union Network International (UNI)/ITF global delivery meeting held in London, UK, on 25-27 February. It called on DHL/DPWN to meet with a delegation of UNI and ITF representatives to establish global dialogue. The aim of this would be to ensure that issues affecting workers on an international scale are raised and resolved. UNI and the ITF have both contacted DPWN in writing urging the company to engage in consultation, but to no avail.
Neil Anderson, UNI Head of Post and Logistics, said: “We are seriously concerned that issues of importance to workers must be discussed with members of the UNI/ITF global delivery network.”
The meeting also passed a resolution backing workers in South Africa, represented by the ITF-affiliated union the South Africa Transport and Allied Workers’ Union. They are currently embroiled in a collective bargaining dispute in the global delivery sector and are planning to take strike action on 15 March.
