The problems in the Swedish ports continue
As you probably have noticed, the problems in the Swedish ports continue and the recent days' development has led to an escalation of the conflict. Since no agreement has been reached by the parties, the Employer's lockout from next week during the period March 6th to July 31st is answered by the Swedish Dockworkers Union with a strike action in all Swedish ports from March 6th. What this implyes is difficult to know at the moment and it remains to be seen whether any solution or change of situation will take place before the strike starts next week. As for now the situation looks like this:
Gävle - no impact
Åhus - no impact
Norrköping - little impact
Gothenburg - little impact
Stockholm - higly impacted
Helsingborg - higly impacted
We will keep you informed of the development.
