Upcoming Strike in Swedish Ports
Strike Notice
We would like to inform you about ongoing strike and blockade notices in Swedish ports. Both the Swedish Dockworkers’ Union and the Transport Workers’ Union have announced industrial actions starting on May 21st.
The Dockworkers’ Union has announced a six-hour strike on May 21 in all Swedish ports. In addition, a separate strike targeting APM Terminals in Gothenburg is planned for May 25–26.
The Transport Workers’ Union has announced a blockade starting on May 21, which includes restrictions on overtime and the hiring of external personnel.
Negotiations are ongoing at a national level via the Ports of Sweden organization. While we hope for a resolution before the planned actions take effect, we cannot rule out disruptions to vessel and container handling at various ports.
We will keep you updated and are available if you have any questions.
