According to the German news agency, the German service industry Confederation announced that a strike would be held in many German seaports on the 9th local time.
The German Union of United Services (ver.di) has previously called on thousands of employees in various seaports to strike on June 9, 2022.
On the 8th, the trade union announced in Hamburg that night shift workers in several ports would be affected, including Hamburg, the largest port in Germany.
Several hours of strikes are also planned in Emden, Bremen and Port William.
It is reported that during the epidemic period, as an important infrastructure, port workers continued to work to the limit.
Trade union negotiators said: "they (workers) should be recognized and get their fair share."
According to logfret, a digital logistics company, since Hamburg and Bremen ports already have a large number of large ships causing congestion,
German ports have faced serious delays in shipping schedule (even if there is no strike), which also has a great impact on
all neighboring countries. Don't forget that all other ports in Europe are also congested and delayed.
With the strike on june9,2022, it will increase operational problems, cause more delays and schedule changes, and once again affect all other European ports such as
Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, the United Kingdom and Poland.
