About the campaign
Dockers are under attack! Fight back by taking action on 7 July
On 7 July the International Transport Workers’ Federation and International Dockworkers’ Council are calling on dockers everywhere to observe a day that recognises the important contribution dockworkers make to the global economy, the risks they face at work every day and their growing concerns for the future regarding attacks on their working conditions. A tribute to fallen and injured comrades will be included.
We want to see action being taken locally, regionally and globally on 7 July at 8am your local time around these key issues:
- Health & safety
- Precarious work
- Respect for collective bargaining rights and agreements
- Labour standards in global companies
- Automation and social justice
