ISS Brazil is advising of a potential national stevedores strike planned to commence tomorrow, on the 10th June 2014.
The indefinite strike, organised by the Union of Stevedores, is expected to affect stevedore operations in all ports across Brazil and is predicted to cause considerable delays with cargo operations from the 10th June, unless an early resolution can be reached with the Brazilian Federal Government.
ISS will continue to monitor events on behalf of customers and stakeholders and post any updates received.
